Selfbow for Robtatto
« on: January 24, 2008, 02:10:00 PM »
Rob is planning to compete in a "primitive" class 3-D shoot over the pond and will be at the Texas Sweat in a couple weeks. Just finished this bow for him. Its 64" NTN 67@29

 

 

Tried Eric's "tillering gizmo" for the first time and that thing is GREAT!

Isn't that just the best thing you've ever seen!  :D

Shaun mentioned to me YESTERDAY that he'd be able to build this in time for the Sweat. Is 24hrs a record?

The ship along will be simple! Shove it int a plastic pipe & take it on the plane!  :D  :D

I'm itching to have a shot with it now.

I can't thank Shaun enough for the effort & ability!

I'll probably spend a lot of time in TX looking for a couple of 3 foot long diamondbacks now!  :D

James, Primative class can be shot at any NFAS shoot. The rules are on the NFAS website.
This particular bow is coming with me to the National Championships, back end of March.
