he never did,, I don't even think he had any brochures..  I've  collected traditional archery brochures since the late 80's and I remember calling harry and he said his bows all sold by word of mouth and he prefered people to call him and tell him what they wanted for woods, weights, lengths, ect.  

so I bought the cherokee magnum and regret selling it but it was short and I wasn't ready for a short bow yet.

No, I meant Adam Proctor (Risen Son) did not have a website. Harry had quit making bows about the same time the 'Net was really getting a start.

I'm a big fan of my Cheetah. 68 at 28. It flat out flings an arrow.

Steve,

Your 62" Magnum has a different profile than any I've seen... it looks more like a speciall proflie to me...

The Jaguar Mag you have that was mine had a more D shape profile... interesting...

Jonathan

PS  Harry did have a brochure at one time... A friend sent a copy to me a couple of years ago... He did advertise in Traditional Bowhunter early as well... but most of his stuff was word of mouth... and then he was often 1.5 to 2 years behind...

"Specials" are more radical reflex/deflex... when strung shows the hybrid profile more...

"Express" is a little less radical and shows in the strung profile also... not hybrid, but not D profile... the limb is for lack of better terms "straighter when strung"

"Magnum" is even less and strung up has more of a D bow profile...

Jonathan

PS  At least that was with Harry's bows...

Steve's magnum shown up above has more of the hybrid profile and if I'm not mistaken that's one of Adam's bows...

Your right Jon, Adam has a more hybrid profile on the magnum than Harry but still not as much as the Special.

Have a Jaguar Special and it's a fast and fine shooting bow. It was made by Harry and while I prefer the grip on my shrews which has caused me to consider selling it every time I do I can't help but think "Harry Elburg isn't make them anymore". I'm not really a collector of bows but it's a thought that I get when it comes to this one and it isn't really a sentimental bow in my collection.
