got my new Protege longbow
« on: February 13, 2011, 06:56:00 PM »
Where are the glue lines? This bow has the best "no" glue lines you could imagine. I was expecting a lot from Lee but he superceeded my expectations. This bow is quiet,easy to draw & the workmanship is outstanding. I had not shot a bow in 4-5 years due to a shoulder injury & surgery until Lee built this bow for me at a draw weight I was comfortable with. Many thanks Lee for a fantastic bow.Guys,the pics don't do justice.

Here is a video of me shooting my new Protégé Hunter Longbow (made by H. Lee Robinson). The bow is 62" in length and 44#@28.

 

 

 

 

 

Here are the photos Lee took before shipping it...

Nice bow and good solid-consistant form for someone with a repaired shoulder. Glad you could get back at it, feels good doesn't it.

Beauty of a bow, and nice form! I've bookmarked your video so I can see how it's done when I'm in a slump!
