Marius Vallecorsa Bows?
« on: May 28, 2009, 07:31:00 PM »
Does anyone have or have shot one of his bows? He is from New Mexico and he has been building bows for quite some time but I never hear much of his bows. Thanks for replies. Flint    :)

Flint,
I have several bows crafted by Marius and they all are awesome. They shoot well and are always eye-catchers wherever I take them. My collection includes a 60" Cedar, English Yew, 58" Black Walnut, 62" Black Walnut, 56" Bamboo, 62" Tulipwood, 58"Purpleheart, and a very special Osage bow from a piece of wood Marius had kept for over 15 years.

You would be hard pressed to find a better bow that is also beautiful to look at for half the money that shoots nearloy as well!

I have a 64" Cedar Longbow made by him and has "Jaguar II" on the bottom limb.  I gave it to a good friend of mine because, well, he is a good friend.  Plus, I have someone to shoot with now!!  Man it is a good shooter and Old Wolf is right on, very easy on the eyes!!!!   I will try to pry it from his hands long enough to take a few pics and will post them.

Contact Marius and ask for a brochure or, if he still has his website, many of my bows are pictured in both.

I just did a google search on Marius Bows and this thread came up (no website). Can any lucky owner out there post a recent pic of these beautiful performers?

Thanks,
Paul

Toejammer, was there a website address mentioned in the add?

Elk, could your friend post some pics? It would be very interesting to see what models and lengths he has.

Thanks guys,
Paul

Thanks a lot, fly!

I've been wondering for years how Marius' bows look like from an exact profile. In his brochure they're photographed from a more odd angle but your pics really helped. Love the Jaguar!

The profile on those bows look just like my MR Hamilton Scorpion longbow.
