Recording specs on bow.
« on: June 29, 2011, 12:17:00 AM »
I have seen pics of bows with the name of the bow and its weight/draw length written on the belly.  What is the best way to do this?

I, Nephi, did make out of wood a bow, and out of a straight stick, an arrow and did go forth up into the top of the mountain and did obtain food for our families and they did humble themselves before the Lord, and did give thanks unto him. 1 Nephi 16

I hear india ink works well for writing on bows. I use a paint marker I bought from wally world. after my first 2 coats of finish I sand it down and write on the bow then finish over it.

I use India ink applied with a metal-nibbed calligraphic pen. Just be sure to mix the ink well before each use.
