Here are a couple of pics of my latest home made bow. It was made from two yew billets I got from Jamie at Ravenbeak. The take down sleeves came from Mike at Pinehollow.

The bow is partially rawhide backed with ebony tips.

Bow is 35#@26" or about 40#@28". It has about an inch of set now but pulls smooth and is whisper quiet.

I enjoyed making this one. I have an elm take down in the works.

Nice takedown bow SD! I love the extra weight in the handle of the takedowns I’ve made. Congrats on a great looking bow.
