Title: Wow - would love to see some more pics of your prettiest 3 piece longbows
Post by: DaveT1963 on July 03, 2013, 10:59:00 AM
I just want to say, that after looking at so many of the new 3 piece longbows, D style, recurves, etc.... We are truly blessed today, I have never seen so many absolutely stunning bows that shoot so dang good.  I love my JD Berry's, but I'll admit these new carbon three piece LBs have really caught my eye.  So many wood choices, overlays, stippling, carving, etc......

Would love to see some pics of your 3 piece bows

This is my prettiest bow. Actually it's my only bow! Custom Stalker Coyote Longbow 60" 44@28"

This is my favorite of all the 3 piece longbows I've owned. It's a Firefly FX Route 66. No carbon in it but a great handling and shooting bow.

She's a hard hitting, good shooting, and good looking bow, at least that's how I feel.

Awesome bows Joe VT - I especially like the Thunderhorn... that was going to be my choice but I recently contacted bowyer and he is not longer taking custom bow orders :-(  I believe his finish work is second to none.... hopefully he will change his mind one day.

What is it with you guys?.. no braced profile pics, no full draw profile pics. So much research and development goes into a bow's limbs, how/where they bend, they're the dynamic part of a bow, of archery, what MAKES a bow a bow, and there they lay, almost without fail, unstrung, disassembled, neutered.

That's fine, those pictures are nice to show off the fancy woods and overlays, but...

show us some braced and drawn pics PLEASE.

Thank you

:)
