Updated bow pics...

[red]

Getting my SMJ Ipe/bamboo bow set up. Added some Hush Puppies, Beaver balls and Black Widow rest/shelf plate. Now waiting for my Raptor Archery arrows: 520 to 540 gr. tapered ash. I'll post some shooting impressions and pics when I get them.

That is one really sweet looking bow red!

Your putting together a really nice collection lately....can't wait to see this new one shoot...

Thanks, brother. Just waiting for the arrows to get here and then I can see how she shoots.

My guess is that you will find it to be very quiet indeed! Nice pictures!!!

That would be my guess as well. Really afraid to shot it at present...my arrows are all way too light...would be too much like dry firing to risk it. New arrows will give me 10gr's per pound of draw weight.

Thats a pretty neat serving tie toward the strings end loop....whats the deal there?.

Hey BT...here's the link: www.bowhush.com/

It is actually made for recurves to silence string slap against the recurve portion of the limb. On this bow, it is mostly bling. I have the Morrison recurve on the way in the future and just wanted to give them a try to see how easy they were to install and what they looked like when applied. Anyway, easy to work with and I will be getting some for the Morrison as well. I am pretty sure they will be effective in assisting in silencing.
