New takedown

#1 Post by bigbob » Mon Oct 31, 2016 3:50 pm

Few shots here of my latest takedown, with an Osage / Red Box riser and silver ash/ red box mosaic accent stripe.It is 54# @ 28'' and is very smooth and quiet.

Very Nice colour combinations Bob, looks like you had a go at using a gloss finish on that one very nice.

Howdy Wayno!. Yeah this one is mostly target so gloss finish. Do a satin finish for hunting bows. sometimes the gloss finish looks like a neon light in the sun!.
