Morrison 1 pc recurves pics anyone!!!!!
« on: December 18, 2013, 05:13:00 PM »
OK been talking to Bob about another bow. He's in the works getting his new shop up and running going to be awhile but thought you folks from TradGang could help me out. He is considering bring back some older bows from the past.

No its not a 100% but thought I would see if anyone has input or pictures of the one piece Arapahos he made a few years ago.

Pictures pictures pictures !!!!! Trying not to bother Bob with this stuff untill he gets going again he has enough on his plate right now.

Any help would be great !!!

Again Bob Is not going forward with this yet but could be in the works again in the future.
I for one would love to see him bring them back Bob is a good friend and one of if not the best bowyers out there IMHO

The Arapaho is an awesome bow ! When I was at Bobs house I saw the form and asked him about it.  I think with enough interest he may dust it off. I have three Morrisons now and thought I had all I could ever need but this may put me over the edge !

I made the sad mistake and sold a one piece Dakota to Bob(Wapati chaser) I hope she's treating you good.    :banghead:    :bang head:  I have shot a lead wood Arapaho that Mr. Morrison had at his house at one time and it was sweet.

Dave that Dakota is my go to bow. It added a another eight pointer the wall this year. The limbs you sold me for the Cheyanne keep begging me to take them hunting lol. A 60" Arapaho with a nasty Osage riser bamboo cores , Osage veneers, full pines and Kudo overlays about 60@28 would fit the bill perfectly.

Yeah, I kick myself for letting that bow go Bob.  I'm glad you made good on it.  That bow is a killer.

It's raining so this is all I can do. Limbs are stained natural bamboo.

Sweet looking bow Bob, you should bring it back. It looks to be very quick with great lines.

Can someone bring me up to speed?

Did you move Bob or slow down building?

I still cruise your website regularly.  Love your bows.  

Wish you would bring the old style risers back.

I picked up a 1-pc Dakota from Bob quite a few years ago.  Had re-finish it for me and the USPS made toothpicks out of it.

I have and love my Shawnee but would really like to have another 1-pc Dakota.

P.S. - too many pieces and not enough curve in the limbs for what you requested but your thread is hurtin' for pictures
