Title: at last, new Assenhiemer is here
Post by: Hill Hunter on February 06, 2010, 05:08:00 PM
I Got home from a week on the road and there it was, is it wrong for a bow to look this good and shoot great also?

Enjoy it. The Assenheimer bows are some of the best out there.

Now take some photos and don't use a white reflective background.  We will be able to see them much better.  Try laying the bow on a pastel blanket....or gray flannel, etc., something that absorbs light and is not white.
I know they are beautiful bows...both in their looks and the way they shoot.

Don was not sure, he showed me the wood when I was there, first he thought maybe waterfall zebra, then he did not think so,(one of those brain lock things) said he had enogh for about 4 sets of limbs. I said it did not matter what it was called, I wanted it.

I recently sold one I should have kept.

They shoot as good, if not better than anything out there, and Don's finish it the best I've ever seen even on bows costing twice as much.

Soooooooooooooooooooo quiet too.

Congrats

My favorite recurve! And that one's a beauty. I'm usually a longbow guy but keep Don's bow with three sets of limbs because I've never had one I like better.  I keep reading threads where guys say "I had a xxxx bow and sold it....sure wish I had it back."  I'm always wondering if it shot as good as they say, why in the world get rid of it! They don't eat anything if they hang unused for a while, and then it's almost like getting a new bow if you take it down and mess around with it--new silencers or string, and a whole lot less expensive. At least that's been my experience.

Wow...that is a great bow.  Like George said thought...background for your photos is real important.
Lets the lens see all the shades and colours.
Deer hides work great too.

I absolutely love my Assenheimer! It is my go to bow if I am not in the zone and need to get my grove back. If I have been doing a lot of target practice, with my other bows, and I get tired, I lean on the Assenheimer.

I point, shoot and the arrow hits the mark. What more can a hunter ask for?
