Title: Magyar 60#
Post by: Tc on March 08, 2015, 02:14:44 pm

This one is 140 cm ntn, 60#-28".
The grip is covered by bone, the ears by horn. I think I am going to stay with this shape, the limbs have pretty good reflex, still they are not overstressed due to the almost zero grip reflex. And no string follow at all, I like it. No shooting yet, but it is very promising..

I love magyars. Such a sweet design and very well done. One day I will try to tackle a horn bow.
