Trinity Long Bows

[ichibuns]

Hello does anyone know about Ed Boyd and his long bows? and if anybody have one? any info. about his bows? plse.let me know thanks  :D

I have pig-eyed his bows from up real close, he makes some beauties. I've spent a lot of time visiting with Edward on the phone and in person. Great guy with a TON of enthusiasm for woodworking/bow building. For the price of his bows, I would say you would not be going wrong.

I have one of Ed's bows. It is the rogue with 3 colors of bamboo in the core and zebra wood veneers.The footed riser is bubinga with a base of zebra with herrinbgbone stripes of wenge, bubinga and maple. The bow looks great and shoots great, not much sense in having one without the other. Ed is a straight up guy who does what he says he will do.  Also you'll enjoy the build experience.

I have not personally seen them but another bowyer friend told me that he had seen them and that they were really nice bows and nice guy.

God bless, Steve

Hello Chiefbarch do you have any pics of your bows from Mr. Boyd that I can see? if you can thanks

[Chiefbarch]

I will have to e mail them. Give me a week, it's the end of our bow season,and I'll see if I can get it done. Haven't figured out how to put them on Trad Gang,yet.

My rogue,
 
Edward is a great guy to talk to, you would not be disapointed with his work either.  There are pictures of his elite model also here  http://tradgang.com/noncgi/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=31;t=001116  his review is right on, my bow is smooth drawing, shoots a fast arrow and is consistently accurate

Thanks for the pics Kindor awsome and good looking long bow you have

Ed just started building bows a couple years ago. I spent a bit of time with him when he was just getting started. He's got a carpentry background and knows how to handle his tools, that for certain.

I ran into him at western states rendezvous last spring in Petaluma Ca. and he was showing off a real purdy Myrtle wood bow. Excellent craftsmanship..... he'd be one to keep your eyes on.    

Does Ed have a web site? if so i couldn't find it.  kirk

Kirk, no disrespect intended, but to say Edward has a carpentry background would be seriously understating his work. He does some really fine furniture building, cabinets etc. I'd agree with your assessment, "excellent craftsman". Just want to make sure credit is passed where it is due. I don't think he has a website yet, been badgering him about getting one going...
