Thought I'd bump this thread back to the top.  Time for an update? Come on, who's working on what at the moment; I'm working on Adam K's book with a view to starting a medium apple-wood-core Turkish target bow next spring........ :)

Is that Kurszan? Looks a little different shaped.. yeah, it has a tad of reflex on the handle unlike Kurszan. Very nice bow, very symmetrical!

I am still going to be working on Kurszan now hahaHa. Have to fix a blemish with glue, sinew wrap, maybe refinish, also fix twist... I guess it was my fault all along, I damaged it..

There's this hornbowyers facebook group. And ATARN facebook group. That's where most people making horn bows post these days... ..

Well, I've never made a horn bow, so I bought Adams book, and watched several YouTube videos about 10 times. I'm primarily interested in NA bow, but I didnt want to spend a bunch of money on sheep horn, so I am giving my first go on a NA horn bow with water buffalo horn......don't judge me.
I have the horn thinned and spliced together with an extra piece of horn for support. In the process of shredding sinew.
