stuckinthemud:
Does anyone know of a thread for building a horn-bow style bow without using horn?  I think Pat may have posted a build-along once upon a time?? 

mullet:
I don't remember the issue of Primitive Archer it was in but I built one that broke and Chris Cade made a shooter with his. Though it wasn't a very good performing bow.

AndrewS:
In the Laubin book there are pics of sinew backed osage bows in the style of hornbows. May be they haven't the long drawlength?

bubby:
Your talking about the turk bow in laubins book, not really a horn bow look just a sinew backed osage painted to look like one

I have made this style of bow, I was not happy with the performance though.....
