Robustus Wins August Backed Bows!
« on: September 10, 2011, 01:29:52 pm »
Congratulations to James Parker from North Carolina for winning August Backed BOM!

From James:
Here is a hybrid Scythian horn bow that i finished up this month, after 8 months seasoning it was a pleasure to see it come to a finish. It is 49" tip to tip. 60#@27" so far. I'm looking to have it draw out to 28" or 29" after it is shot in.  Birch bark cover with Scythian Ram with horse and leapard on back of the bow.  This bow really shoots great- no hand shock , dead quiet and fast...  I may have to keep this one to hunt with this year.

Congrats James!  here's some comments from forum members!
"So excellent James...your work is stellar and quite the inspiration.  One day I'll take a crack at a horn bow, hopefully sooner than later.  Keep em coming."  -Lee Slikkers
"Just amazing craftsmanship! All of these bows you've been finishing up are just beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing"  -ryoon4690
"Uh....eh....a.....th....<------speechless."  -blackhawk
"James you are fast becoming the master of the horn bows. Another incredible bow and definitely my favorite that you have made so far. Well done" -Keenan
"AWESOME BOW! I'm a total beginner and the bows that you turn out leave me shaking my head. If I can learn just a fraction of what you know about building bows someday, I'll be a happy man."-Woodsman
