Title: New (to me) Martini longbow
Post by: blind one on December 23, 2009, 01:54:00 PM
I just answered the door and it was one of my favorite people. The mailman was waiting with a long box. I traded for this Martini longbow without even seeing a picture of it. I'm glad I did. Its 64" 48@28. The riser is zebrawood and the limbs are elm under clear glass. Those look like marks on the limb, but its just the flash. I think I have a keeper here.....Roy

The gent who makes those lives in Brockway, Pa., just north of Dubois.  He is normally at the ETAR shoot every year.

Nice bow!!  The grip looks real comfortable, like it would just fit like a glove!
