Iowa Hardwood Lost Creek Takedown

[Lost Creek Bows]

I'm posting some pic's of a takedown Longbow I just finished up for a customer of mine. I'm really happy with the fine Iowa hardwoods in this bow, that are from my home state of Iowa. The riser is Curly Black Walnut and the accent strip is Curly Maple. The limbs are Wild Cherry, with Red Elm cores. This is a sweet shooting and looking stick 64" 40@28"

Beauty!  And the shelf is even on the right side.

Iowa lumber you say......that has to be the classiest bow ever made.    

Good lookin bow  

[Lost Creek Bows]

Its all local lumber. I keep finding myself not wanting to use and pay the high price for exotic lumber. It would be cheaper for me and the customer. Thanks Chad

That's nice! I have been kickin around a similar thought about a bow built from all native lumber.

Nothing wrong with the regular woods. Looks great Chad.

That is one pretty bow. Bet it shoots as good as it looks. Huuummmm,   I think that one is headed my way. Yep,  I will be the proud owner of that Iowa Hardwood. It amazes me how quiet and fast his bows are.

Apparently I caught him at a good time. It's been less than 3 weeks since the order. Better get an order in before hunting season.

I'll post my thoughts when I have a chance to shoot it.  Thanks Chad, What a pleasure to deal with.

Another great looking bow Chad. I really need to get me a t.d. in the near future. Congrats on the bow mint hill.

The only thing better than looking at LC bows is shooting them. Another beauty Chad. Still haven't forgotten that recurve I have been wanting. Maybe calking you soon. That Iowa wood has to have some deer mojo!!!

[Shifting Shadow]

I like that Iowa State bow! Beautiful woods.

[Bud B.]

Maybe Chad needs to host a Lost Creek homecoming hunt.... hhhaaaaaaaaa!

I'd like to line an arrow up on an Iowa deer.  

[Ric O'Shay]

Really like that walnut.

Bud you or anyone who owns a Lost Creek is welcome to come for a hunt. Getting the tag is the hard part. But, it is a great state to hunt whitetails and well worth the wait I'm in zone 5. Thanks Chad

Really nice bow, Chad.
I like the understated look of those classic woods of your home state. You build one heck of a good shootin' bow!

That walnut looks sharp
