Post your horsebows or Asian reflex bows pictures here.
« on: January 04, 2013, 08:59:00 PM »
Thought I would post some pictures of my new bow. Been shooting my compound for the last 7 years. This is my first traditional bow. Assyrian biocomposite from grozer 43# @ 28"

Not sure it can be classified as a horsebow. The shape more like a hybrid longbow. Its outer layers are sinew and horn but reinforced with modern glass composite on both sides of the wood core. The siyah nocks are strengthened with hard wood insert and sinew. I have used a fast flight string on it without problems. Its difficult to string at first due to the extreme reflex but I got the hang of it. It has a smooth and sweet draw and a joy to shoot. Video of shooting:    

Please post pictures of your primitive/ historical/ horse bows as well.

You are right.  It spits a 9.2gpp arrow with fury. Noticeably faster than my 40# round wheel compund.

I was muscles shaking, sweating all over and cursing on the first few attempts trying to string it without success!

Nice asian look!
An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.
