Help me pick a bow name
« on: November 01, 2007, 06:49:00 PM »
We are nearing final stages of our forward handle longbow. We have not yet picked a name for this bow. I would be interested in any suggestions for this bow. Please offer up your best ideas!

Since the Sipsey River headwaters are in the Appalchian Plateau, how about the "Appalachian"?......

I always thought that "Long Shot" would be a good name for a bow.

Sipsey River bow should have a river critter name. Turtle is too slow, Frog is too little and green.
How about Otter. Their slick and usually get there prey.  River Rat might be another one.

Anyone familiar with southern appalachian streams has heard of or seen a "waterdog", also known as a hellbender. The later would be a pretty cool bow name.

hatchchaser, you are exactly right.  Hellbender would for sure be a cool bow name, it gets my vote.
