        Check this out guys. A fella I know in my town that makes glass longbows made a pair for a father and his son and I reckon it’s about the neatest thing I’ve ever seen from a custom bowyer.

        How proud is that little fella going to be roaming the bush by his dad’s side and a bow that looks just like his dad’s in his hand?

        The specs are 52″NTN, 25#@24″ and 68″NTN, 59#@30″.

          Jim,

          That is a nice brace of bows! Father and Son will be proud to shoot with those.

              Wow – how great is that?!? Hopefully both those bows will be passed down someday, and the tradition continued.

                Very nice!

                I made a bow for my daughter, and even though she out grew it a few years back, she still talks about the bow dad made for her.

                It’s a good thing. Better get on the stick Jim and get ready to make one for your rug rat. And enjoy every second of it, they grow up and away, way too soon.
