Naming my bow models
« on: March 06, 2009, 10:42:00 AM »
I am thinking of naming my bow models, and thought I would bounce my ideas off of my friends here. Here is what I have in mind. All comments welcome.

My flagship bow will always be my straight Hill style longbow, since it is what I prefer. I will call it the Cumberland.

My mild R/D will be called the Sapelo.

My hybrid in the research and development stage will be called the Ossabaw.

All these names come from the barrier islands off Georgia's coast, where I have spent some of my best times.

Good choices.  Cumberland is also the name of a rare paleo-indian arrowhead

I've got a new friend helping me design a decal.  What do you guys think of this?  I know hogs aren't normally predators, but I like 'em.

How about bigger tusks and RED eyes??

You could also add, "Bows that put YOU at the top of the food chain!"  or some such in the logo.

I just wanted it as a sillouette, so that I could print some in white and some in black.  I think bigger tusks and colored eyes would have looked too cartoonish.

Nice names Marty. Very respectful of the local heritage. Interested in the new bow form. Need a sidekick to my MOAB with a southern flair.

I thought you might call them the Apex Predator series.  No matter what, people will spell them wrong on the internet forums.
