Title: 21st century longbow like
Post by: Langbogenschuetze on March 09, 2021, 08:56:21 AM

hello hunters,

i come from germany and was lucky enough to get a used 21st century - edge longbow.
The performance of this bow surprised me so much , that I decided to recreate it.
I have adapted it to the IFAA-rules and given it an individual handle (lefthand).
It has the same performance as the original. is really fun!

I like Ironwood, have several custom knives with Ironwood burl handles.  Not the chocolate color, but more burnt honey.
Edi, I have a Big River clone of the 21st Century and that design performance is exceptional.  You take looks great.

That’s nice looking.  And the shelf is on the right side(lefty).  Good job!
