natural material horse bow
« on: March 17, 2009, 09:33:00 AM »
You guys should check out James Parker's natural material horse bow on POW WOW..."Bamboo Horse Bow".
  James is a new sponsor(huntworthyproductions.com) and a long time friend of mine. He is an incredible craftsman with natural material bows and glass lam bows, as well as one of the best knappers in the US.
The bow James posted has a raw boo backing, carbonized boo belly and a series of wood center lams, is 48" long and pulls 30". I have shot similar bows that James made and they are very fast and accurate.

Ruddy, James will be at the State Shoot near Hickory at the end of May. He should have a nice selection of all of the bows he makes. He will be at the Tenn. Classic the first part of May.
