I am almost positive that I've spoken with a bowyer whose name is Attila. He makes a you finish it bow that has kind of like a Scythian look to it.

Now if you mean the name of the bow was an Attila, then nope.

I can't wait to see the pictures of yours.

God bless,Mudd

By the way, my Mongolian Horse Bow says Attila Archery on it. I just came inside from shooting it.

And....? I'd love to hear your thoughts since I couldn't shoot it enough to say much more than I liked it, it really spit an arrow, hit where I was looking and made me hurt because it was too heavy for a gimp right shoulder.

God bless,Mudd

It has a mountain of hand shock! But, it does spit an arrow and goes just about where you look. I am happy. I think I can get it under control and be competitive in 3 D and it will HUNT!

Hey Matt, I never noticed much if any hand shock.

If I remember correctly I used more of a longbow grip on it as apposed to the looser style recurve grip I use.

Roy,

I use a death grip. Hmmmm? Maybe that is why. I am going to put in some silencers.

Anyway, I love shooting it.

It is just an old Mongolian design. It ain't gonna feel like them thar new fangled bows.
