I love this bow.  The draw length is impressive.  Is this bow made with just sheep horn only or is there a wood core and or sinew also?  I agree the tiller is spot on.  What is the cast lime on this bow.  How would it compare with standard wood bow.  Thanks.

thanks, only sheep horns, sinew and snake skin...this is native american style horn bow, without a wooden core

Very cool.  I’m working on a horn bow right now myself.  I’ll post some pics of it soon.  It’s a wood core with Buffalo horn belly and sinew back.  It’s got fixed levers reinforced with horn all glued together with hide glue.  Hopefully it doesn’t explode.  🤞
