Gonna have Brian make a new set of 62" limbs 57#@28" using macassar he has in stock for the laminations.

Bro,

It has antler up the riser, so probable antler tips, not sure if he does overlays with antler, gonna have to ask him.

Danny, my 3pc TT longbow has antler tips. What are the limbs on that one you picked up?

Steve,

They make a 64" bow on the long riser, have antler tips, copperhead skins on the back and cocobolo belly. 54#@28". Once I get the new limbs made I will be putting them up for sale. Do not know what poundage or length bow they will make on other than the long riser.

Very nice bow Danny, I do love the checkering in the grip.  Those veneers are going to make some real sharp looking limbs for sure.

Glad you're happy Danny. Pleasure dealing with ya. Macassar veneers would go beautifully with that riser.

So Danny,
Many moons from now when you move on to the Great Hunting Grounds above, are they just going to turn your home into an archery museum of art?
Do you even own anything that is not jaw dropping?
Another stunning bow!

LOL, David,

I do love nice bows. Two of them will be buried with me, the rest, hopefully I will move on to other owners before my time. My wife and kids would have no idea what to do with them, much less what they are worth. May have to make a list just in case.

I agree, love bows.
Mankind can have it's gold and bling.
Give me a nice bow made of nature's best any day.
