In search of the bow i never got......
« on: April 03, 2013, 09:05:39 am »
 Hey guys been a away for a while but now I have a rekindled interest in archery again.
I'm in search of a bow maker that can make my dream bow.
I always wanted an osage long bow that the limbs flaired out coming off the handle then tapered twords the limbs.
also want a antler arrow rest and the outside limbs rattle snake skinned. Need 65# @ 29"....WHO DO I NEED TO TALK TO GUYS??
Thanks

I'm not volunteering  got too many irons in the fire right now, but just hang on a little while and you will have several guys here that can fill that order in spades. There are some amazing bowmakers here so your in the right place. I would lurk around the site and see whose style you like the best and then maybe PM them and try and work out some arrangements.   Danny

You have definitely come to the right place.  Sidewinder made a great suggestion.  Everyone has a different style in mind for that perfect bow.  Keep your eyes peeled here and surely you will find someone whose style of bows match that of your dream bow. 

Where are you located.  International shipping can be tricky with bows. 
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

There's a great guy that can make just the bow for you.  He's pretty easy to find, too.  Go look in the mirror.  Yup, that guy.  For all his faults and shortcomings, he's got what it takes inside him to make that bow.  And more!

We'll help.
