Stik Bows by Don Dow
« on: October 26, 2011, 08:14:00 PM »
I have been looking at Don's bows and if anyone has one of his bows, even better one with carbon limbs, I would love to see a picture of how the limb lams. are layered.   :pray:  

Weather it is glass-wood-carbon-wood-glass or what?

I'm sorry it this is a silly request but I'm trying to get a picture of this in my mind. I have also emailed Don but I'm sure he is a busy man.

Best pic I could come up with. Hope it helps. He does his own lams so they are full length not spliced.

I love it! Great shooter and amazingly quiet. My next bow will be another Don Dow.

I don't have a pic of mine but I will say it is one of the best shooting bows I have purchased.  You will not be disapointed. When I ordered mine I asked Don about the advantage of adding carbon and he told m I could expect to gain 2 to 3ft per second. Is it worth the extra cost?? Only you can be the judge.  I replaced the stock string with a string from Oliver Stacy and the bow is plenty quick and the skinny string pepped the bow up quite a bit. Little bit louder but it was easy enough to quiet down.  Give Don a call he is informative and easy to talk to. IMO Don is one of the best kept secrets in the traditional world.

My first Longbow was a Dow... It was a great shooter and wish I had kept it.. I have own two more since and had Don build one for my daughter..  Great bow and lot's of bang for the buck.
