Naming my bow models

Apex Predator · March 06, 2009, 10:42:00 AM

I am thinking of naming my bow models, and thought I would bounce my ideas off of my friends here. Here is what I have in mind. All comments welcome.

My flagship bow will always be my straight Hill style longbow, since it is what I prefer. I will call it the Cumberland.

My mild R/D will be called the Sapelo.

My hybrid in the research and development stage will be called the Ossabaw.

All these names come from the barrier islands off Georgia's coast, where I have spent some of my best times.

Good choices.

Sound awesome to me...unique and just the right tone for trad bows.

Chris Surtees · March 06, 2009, 11:22:00 AM

Sound like some good choices...can not wait to see your hybrid model. CS

Fine choices, Marty

Good choices. Cumberland is also the name of a rare paleo-indian arrowhead

You need to send samples of each so I may confirm the name fits.Kip

Marty, would my Reverse handled Hill that is coming from you be a "Dnalrebmuc"??? LOL!!!!

The names sound great!

I've got a new friend helping me design a decal. What do you guys think of this? I know hogs aren't normally predators, but I like 'em.

Carbon Caster · March 06, 2009, 12:39:00 PM

How about bigger tusks and RED eyes??

You could also add, "Bows that put YOU at the top of the food chain!" or some such in the logo.

I just wanted it as a sillouette, so that I could print some in white and some in black. I think bigger tusks and colored eyes would have looked too cartoonish.

You're close to Jekyl Island... :rolleyes:

Carbon Caster · March 06, 2009, 01:42:00 PM

Jekyll would be an AWESOME name for the radical D/R Bow!!!! I really like that!

Real nice logo.

Jeff Roberts · March 06, 2009, 04:28:00 PM

Nice names Marty. Very respectful of the local heritage. Interested in the new bow form. Need a sidekick to my MOAB with a southern flair.

George D. Stout · March 06, 2009, 05:03:00 PM

I thought you might call them the Apex Predator series. No matter what, people will spell them wrong on the internet forums.

RonD · March 06, 2009, 05:07:00 PM

Marty, can you put pics of the different models you make for us to look at?
