I just came across you, and I really like your craftsmanship,, and I just subscribed. I’m retired now and getting into this artform , if that’s your second Bow,, I am VERY IMPRESSED. Hope to catch more of your classes,,
Nice! It sounds really nice. That's not the most common thing one would say about a bow but it pushes the arrow with a confidence/really nice acceleration that I can "hear". The bend is really pleasing and the overall execution of the detail work is really well done. It's an elegant bow. Good job, young man.
Seems very well made. So you have nice quality red oak boards there. Here I must take those rare knotty red oak logs in front of forester's nose, but that wood is really great.
Really like the antler tip overlays! Have you figured out the arrow speed yet? I started doing that for my bows and it helps me understand how good of a bow I made compared to my previous bows.
No worries. I got a little over an inch of set in each limb. It's also worth noting that I made this bow prior to learning about heat treating prior to tillering, and I've still yet to make a bow with a backing. Still very new at all this.
@@BrianTimmonsTX I'm in the same boat as you. I backed mine with rawhide, I'm almost done tillering and I have set similar to yours. Did your set stop augmenting after a certain point or does it keep growing?
