Congrats on the bow!

Got two coats of spar on the bow now and decided to lable her!

First time with a calligraphy pen and dipping ink... I don't think it is too bad of a job.




Waiting on the ink to dry so that I can put two more coats of spar on her. Then to make the arrow rest tomorrow and put the leather grip on her. Just about finished... shot the bow a bunch today and it was great!!!

:clapper:    Congrats on the bow Shawn.  That's a real piece of art.

Mike - Ya done real well again.  Absolutely beautiful.  Are building them professionally yet?  If not, you should be.

Justin - I think your wrting on the bow looks great.  I've always struggled with my writing on bows and I recently got the same calligraphy pen/ink you did and Kenny's bow was the first I used it on.  It makes it much neater and I don't know why I didn't invest in that long ago.

Terrific looking bows, gentlemen! Brushwolf that is an amazing piece of work, my friend!
I've been trying to finish up a bow for one of my son's college friends but it just isn't coming out... I'll be starting my swap bow in about a week and a half.
Great stuff, guys.

I posted a thread on the test bow I made for me before I began my recipient's.  I've got my trade bow tillered and ready for scallops, tempering, and shooting in.  :)   Here's a link:

I'm needing to get some shelf material and then shoot it some more and mine will be ready to ship out.

Swiss those risers look freaking sweet.  I like the coco with osage arc best.

Final finishing touches on my trade bow...  

I'll be shooting it again Wednesday (got over 100 shots through it) just to make sure it's where I want it and shipping it out Thursday.... I hope it brings my Victim the same amount of pleasure it brought me    :)  

Yew anyone?????

Yew..... Heck yeah it looks awesome. Dang all the killer bows it really makes it hard if a guy had to choose. Here is plan A it's light by about 6 or 7 lbs. I had it pulled to 27 which is 251/2" on my marks those are belly side numbers... I put that green tape down so I never over draw past 28" or whatever number I don't want to draw past.

Plan B is right on the money needs a few tweaks here and there and I'll get some pics up.
