New magyar
« on: January 08, 2015, 08:05:14 am »
Here is my brand-new magyar horn bow.
140 cm tip to tip, 80# - 27”
Buffalo horn, ash core, horse sinew, shellac finish, sinew bandage. The ears have bone, the grip has horn cover. So far my best magyar bow…

Is the horn bison or water buffalo?

Thanks for all kind words. :)
Parnell: Water buffalo horn. I have no experience with bison horn......
Peacebow: The ears are just covered by bone.

Thanks :)
medicinewheel: The max. draw length is over 30", 27" was the max. length at which we were able to measure it ( I don't have a hanging scale, we used a simple bathroom-scale, but I will measure it "officially" as well )

Talking trees. What do trees have to talk about, hmm... except the consistency of squirrel droppings?
