I thought I would share some pics of my new Kota Badlands Longbow. It has Bocote limb overlays with a Bocote handle. The limb cores are bamboo and the limb tips are made of sheeps horn. It's 62",#52@28. I am so pleased with the craftsmanship of this bow. Thanks, Tim!!!
Hopefully these pics will upload correctly.

I am a bocote fan and that is a remarkable piece of bocote!!! A beautiful bow!!! I never would have thought that sheeps horn would look that good with the bocote, but it is a beauty!!! Almost to purty to take to the woods!!! Almost!!!

Here you go, Bentpole. Thanks everyone. This is my first Kota bow and I am not disappointed. Tim is obviously an excellent Bowyer. Now if I can just shoot this bow as good as the it looks!

Congrats! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I love that bow! I call dibs if you ever want to sell!
I have to get one of his longbows! I'm looking at a 3 piece Nomad with a Bacote riser and Birds-eye limbs.
Very nice bow you have there! The Bacote is very high grade that is for sure.

You got it, Josh. If I ever sell it, you are the first one I will contact.

I got rid of my kota years ago and have regretted ever since. Nice bow.
-
Congrats nice bow :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :clapper:
-
What else can I say? Beautiful! Eric.
-
Very nice looking bow. I really like the limb overlays. Congrats!
-
I have the exact same bow, same woods except the limb tips are bocote instead. They have a smooth draw and are fun to shoot. Mine is 53@27 3/4". Tim's a nice guy to deal with - Enjoy
-
Now why would you send that bow over to Michigan? It would just get all scratched up in the UP.
Sorry Oliver, I think it should come back to it's home in North Dakota. It would make a great addition to my bow family- my Shrew and my Kota Prairie Swift.
Beautiful bow for sure!
-
:thumbsup: I like it!!!
-
That is a beautiful bow!!! Tim is a very good bowyer and a heckuva guy!

-
Im 16 and just bought my first custom recurve a kota prairie swift and its the best recurve I have ever shot congrats on the most beautiful longbow I have ever seen
-
That Bacote is some pretty stuff :)
-
I'm a Bocote Lover, and that is some of the best I've seen. Awesome bow! :clapper:
-
Bacote is definately one of my favorites and Tim makes one SWEET bow. Stopped by his shop today and "got the urge"...
-
I have seen that bow, it was my favorite by far at the Coon Rapids Trad 3D. The Bocote was fantastic, bow is very light in the hand. I have one of Tim's 3 pc T/D nomads but I think I prefer his badlands. Great bow.
-
I agree. Beautiful piece of bacote and workmanship. I even like Tim's stylish writng on his bows. It shows pride in what he does and highlights his work.
-
I'm guessing that one of Carol's jobs with the writing - maybe not
-
Congratulations nice bow.
