Title: The Bow Maker
Post by: Pago on December 21, 2015, 12:05:00 PM

This video is about Jack Cramer, I was introduced to Jack a few months ago we started swapping stories and talking bows since. He has been a major help with my bow builds. The video was done by an independent production company.  Hope you enjoy.

"It's easier to shoot the machine than to be the machine"

An observation well put.

He nocks the arrow by pushing it through between the string and the bow.  I've not seen that done for a long time.

This interview captures the calm and commitment that is distinctly traditional archery as compared to the hyped up noise of the other side.
