Put ebony nocks on Rudders' warbow, had to shorten a bit, chrysaling???!
twilightandmist:
never did like the rudderbows warbow anyway. i have seen some that bent so little in the outer halves of the limbs, i could almost swear they were lever tips. all the same, piking down the limbs probably didnt help, but if its any consolation, there was already a problem there anyway, so it isnt entirely your fault.
adb:
Hickory, ash, maple, white oak... those are all tension strong backing woods. None of them make really good belly wood IMHO. Hickory/ipe/hickory is a horrible tri-lam combo for a warbow. Hickory backed ipe, however, is a whole 'nother story!
And no, I have NOTHING good to say about Jim Boswell and Rudderbows. The tiller on this bow is horrible for a warbow. Been stung badly in the past... don't get me started. I'll just leave it.

Jim strikes again! Interesting that rudderbows seems on the down low. I think woodland archery is related in some way? They have one bow on the site, a plains Indian bow, that they actually recommend as a home defense weapon as a firearms alternative. And I think Justin Seinmetz (Jim's kid or stepkid) went amoke. Internet fraud, arrested maybe, ripping off customers left and right, all kinds of things. His Army service was even in question. Strange stuff. :)
Ian.:
Is that going to be made into a movie at some point?
adb:
Great reality TV! There's more bizarre stuff on right now!
