Haven't been on the 'gang much lately but I just checked Bob's website and he's bringing the 1-pc Dakota back into production. Looks like I need to be a good boy and talk real nice to Santa while I still have the chance.

I have been asking him about that... now I just need money!
Killdeer :bigsmyl:
I guess I am in the dark. Bob who?
Morrison?
Yup, wish he would bring back the Arapaho recurve as well. That was one of the quietest and fastest recurves I ever owned, my son-in-law now has it. I had a brief brain fart and gave it to him for his B-Day one year! Shawn

Just went to the Morrison websight. He is bringing back the Arapaho also.
I have a light-poundage Arapaho that I love, and wished I could get another in my hunting weight. Gonna see how a Chinook behaves.
I should have all my bow-buying done sometime in the next three grand, right? :confused:
Killdeer :help:
Did you notice the Dakota riser changes Bob made to it making it more beautiful? Ken
Killie, The Arapaho is coming back also. I'm playing with riser design, Trying to get a little more physical weight into the bow. Any feed back is needed. The original forms are being used, just playing with riser design.
anyone have photos of each, the Dakota and Arapaho?

I hate to break it to you, Killie, but there is no such thing as "done"! Save your pennies and plan your next shopping trip. Hey, you only go around once, my friend :bigsmyl: !!

The arapaho was the best one piece recurve I ever had. If it had a bit more riser weight it would be unbelievable.
That same riser would be killer in a longbow too.

Where are you guys (and gal) seeing this info on his website. I'm sure I'm spacing out somehow.
On his home page on the left side towards the bottom is the word "news" in red letters. Click on the word news.
:notworthy: This is great news !! When Bob stopped making the Dakota I freaked out and sold my 1966 Kodiak that took me years to find and favorite longbow so I could buy another Dakota in case I wore out my first one ! Guess I can sleep easier now with only two Dakotas by my bed :goldtooth:
Anyone have pics of the Arapaho One Piece Recurve???
Thank you...
Killie,that picture of yours has to be one of the nicest I've ever seen.i can smell it so bad it hurts ,Reminds me of my elk trip coming up with Moose thrown in,and no one better to share it with than my son,God that picture Hurts!LOL
Gator, the video I posted is of the Arapaho.

When the website opens up click on the little red letters that say "NEWS" in the lower left hand corner.
Bob, just make the grip more like late 60s early 70s recurve. A bit beefier and more medium wrist on the Arapaho. Shawn
