i have been extremely lucky, to have recieved two very beautiful bows recently. bows that i will be hunting almost exclusively with this season.
i already took my benbow out last weekend- when i let the deer walk at about 8 yards- i so desperately wanted to shoot it, for me, for the bow, and for Ben. but ethics prevailed, and i let it walk- the shot was just not clean enough!
the other bow i got from bert frelink- a powerful giant of a man.
i know him personally, and him being a "Dutchman", we share a commonality in language, (being from south africa- we all speak at the very least, both english and afrikaans, and afrikaans is simply a derivative of dutch.) and what a gentleman the man is!
i still dont know how he makes such fine, skinny sexy bows- it must be like us trying to whittle a toothpick with a machete.
Berts bow is boo backed yew. also a very snappy shooter!!
