hey guys, here is a few that just didn't make it :'( :'( :'(
broke Scythian,tartar,persian,,,,,,their souls have been released O:)

tattoo dave:
That sucks!! I'm planning on trying one soon, but i've been saying that for a long time. :o

When one breaks like that, is it possible to salvage the horn , or sinew? If the horn is not broke obviously

Tattoo Dave

tattoo dave:
I guess I should reword that last question. Have you ever had only the core wood break, and be able to salvage the horn?

Dave

james parker:
yes dave the very bottom bow is a Persian, it had a total horn delam, during the last shot lol.. so I used the horn on another bow and soaked the sinew off and used it  too

JW_Halverson:
THE James Parker is fallible?  Oh say it isn't so!!!   ;D

Thanks for showing the dark side of bowmaking. namely that we continue to strive for better and better results, often at the cost of time, materials, and sanity!
