Title: bbi 'twin' warbows
Post by: dutchwarbow on June 15, 2009, 04:08:00 PM

managed to finish these today. One's drawing 110-115#@30", gotto bring her to 110#@32" later. It's the one with horn-zebrano nockoverlays, and the propellor painting as a handle indication.

the other bow draws 105#@32", might bring them down to 90# for a deal, but not sure yet. Zebrano overlays aswell, further nothing special.

enjoy;)

zebrano (+horn) overlays:

Very nice job on the bows. I like the string nocks, the top groove is for the stringer yes?
I hope you did not find out if that thing CAN shoot through walls.HAHA. nice looking bows man!

Excellent!  I'm not sure how you guys can draw those heavy bows but I am very impressed.

Thanks for you comments guys! we sure had alot of fun making these vids, hehe  ;)

yes, two tracks, the upper groove is for a stringer. It was actually an experiment for stringing a warbow with hornnocks, since I usually use the african way to string my bows, but it would cause the hornnocks to break off  ;)

I have a friend that puts them on his ELB's. It is an easy and inexpensive way to get a stringer. plus it makes stringing a "WARBOW" a tad easier. Godd stuff man! keep it up.
