Ozbow

This is a new bow for my range. The Perentie, named after Australia's largest monitor lizard of the same name. It has an Australian Silky Oak riser with black fibreglass limbs. This particular bow is 45# @ 28". And as you can see, it's a deflex/reflex longbow. I'm quite happy with it and the colour in the grain of the Silky Oak really stands out.

Very nice Stuart.

Nice, really like the oak!

Thanks gents, I've liked the Silky Oak for some time and I think it looks great in a bow.

I probably should've said this originally but this bow is currently for sale for $550 + postage.

Stu, great looking bow, it must be super light with that silky oak riser. I have a heap of it but mainly use it for my wood turning never really thought of using it for a bow.
I like the black accent strip as it goes with the black glass you used. Congratulations on an new line in your bows.

Cheers Wayno

Thanks Wayno, yeah it is pretty light to hold. You hardly feel it in your hand.

Looks great Stuart. Are your limb core laminations silky oak as well?
