Andreas,

Mate, what an unbelievable looking bow...! and from all accounts a great shooting bow as well...! If that was my bow, I would find it very hard not to be staring at it all day long...!

Have fun shooting it..

Cheers Guy..

Thank you very much Guy

I actually do stare at it everytime I get the opportunity. Also, now that the weather is so great, I get to shoot it a lot!

Let me know when you got YOUR bow!

Andreas

Andreas,

Mate, we have great shooting weather at the moment too... I had a few shots this afternoon and all is looking good..!

I will let you know when the Scythian finds its new home...

Cheers Guy

Ooh, Scythian? Nice! I plan on getting a Scythian hornbow, when I get older (and richer!). I like the design.

WOW-talk about a nice looking bow. All set up for a thumb ring with no shelf.

TheFatboy · June 03, 2010, 02:24:00 AM

Thumb ring shooting is awesome. Sometimes, I'm more accurate with a thumb ring, than I am with a three-finger release

eric-thor · June 03, 2010, 02:38:00 AM

nice bow bro....im envious :p

Izzy · June 03, 2010, 06:31:00 AM

Beautiful bow.How bout the low down on all of those roe deer antlers?

TheFatboy · June 03, 2010, 06:41:00 AM

Eric: It's really nice, indeed. Performs as good as it looks!

Izzy: Well... all those are my fathers doings :D
A few years from now, I too will have a wall looking just like that!... hopefully.

Festivus · July 01, 2010, 01:41:00 AM

That is an absolutely stunning bow!!!

Thumper Dunker · July 01, 2010, 02:08:00 AM

Realy nice bow.

TheFatboy · July 01, 2010, 02:39:00 AM

Thank you guys! I still randomly pick it up at times just to feel it. For a bow of this poundage, it is VERY physically light. Weighs exactly 1½ pound. Launches heavy arrows with great authority.

It's mine. My own. My precious

BSBD · July 02, 2010, 10:14:00 PM

That bow is one of the nicest I've seen.

How do you like the ray skin?
Is it rough on the hand?

I have something from Lukas due this fall.

TheFatboy · July 03, 2010, 07:16:00 AM

I love the ray skin. Besides looking awesome, it gives you an incredibly firm grip. It's not rough at all, as you might expect. If you're thinking about getting it - do it! It's truly great.

WOW!!!!!!
