I was lucky enough to win the bid on the St. Judes auction this year for a Bow build my Chad Holm. I got a PM this mourning that the bow has been glued up. Chad is off to the Longbow Safari in Idaho and will finish it up when he gets back. I'm having him build me something really different this time. A 64" longbow, black glass on the back, gray glass on the belly, bubinga riser and it will be a dual shelf so I can go with either hand. It will have overlays front and rear with matching tips and will be 43# @ 29". This is gonna be really neat!!

 

Post lots of pics of the process if you can.

Can't wait to see that gray glass belly. Dual shelves? I can't shoot well with one, 2 would be MORE than twice as bad.

I have wanted to try left hand for a while.....I'm left eye dominate and have shot right handed for a long, long Time. So, this will be chance to have it both ways at a low poundage to work my way into it! And for those shots on the 3/D range that you could do better if you were the other hand, I can give it a go!

Sounds like a good idea Ron.

I should have it for the Muzzy....,you can try it out Jim!!

Ron, If Chad emails you pics, let me know.  I will git em up!

Cant wait to try it.

I heard the grip on this bow will be very likeable!

Chad's bows look, feel and shoot the way bows are supposed to!
Put simply, that man simply has it flat figured out.

I just picked up one of Chad's longbows at the Rapids archery shoot.  I got a 64" Goshawk that is 46# @ 28".  This is the first longbow I have had since I was a kid and I already shoot it better than my recurve.  Chad builds a very nice bow.

I have a recurve and a longbow by Chad.....when he offered the bow on the auction ....I could not resist....lol!

Sounds pretty cool.

Got news from Chad, my bow is done and will be here soon. When it comes I'll get some pics taken to show Chad's handy work on this dual shelf longbow.....I'm excited!        Can't wait to shoot it, right and left handed!

This is your year Ron!

           

Ron,  I'll mail it tomorrow, if you email me your address by 9:00 tomorrow.  I think I have your address somewhere from past orders but I don't want to dig through my messy desk!!
