Default Call me a fool

I just plonked down the deposit on a custom made long bow.

Going to have the handle in Rosewood BurgundyDymondwood, laminated Bamboo limbs not sure of what other timber is going on the limbsI have left that upto themaker.

The specs are 66" 55lb @ 27" draw.

From the bows I have seen him make so far I don't know if I will shoot it or hang it on the wall as a work of art

Now the wait begins it should be here in 6 to 8 weeks

He is going to email me pics as he builds my bow so I can see the progress from day 1.

Dang it's only been an hour since I ordered it and I am already getting antsie

Whose the bower? I just finished two composit bows. None with bamboo, but with hickory, walnut, ipe, and osage. With a boo core, you will have a smooth shooter.

You will like that bow. It will be a sweet shooter. May be when we get that hog hunt going, you can bring it down. That way we can make fun of Rev for shooting his training wheel bow.
