Title: A Horn Bow by Lukasz Nawalny is September Laminate Bow of the Month
Post by: OldBow on October 05, 2009, 11:32:33 am

Congratulations to Lukasz Nawalny of Lodz, Poland
His 2nd Horn Bow is September Laminate Bow of the Month
http://www.primitivearcher.com/smf/index.php/topic,14810.0.html

From Lukasz:
My second horn/sinew bow in my life , this time a little more difficult. Shape and type of work takeoff on hungarian recurve , but recurve tips in hungarian are other - here is my invention . Hickory core , elm recurve and handle. 130 cm , about 40 lb. Bow shoot very nice , but of course without speed record - water buffalo horn and sinew make bow heavy ( 420 g) so with this draw weight like I said very good but not great. Almost 30 cm of reflex
From PA On-Line Participants:
"What's not to like? What a great profile. Great candidate for September Laminate Bow of the Month! " -OldBow
"WOW! Awesome profiles. Your full draw tiller is perfect. Looks like you covered the inner limbs with leather?" -adb
"That is a great looking bow. Well done" -Jesse-S
"That's a very nice one! "- medicinewheel
"one day, man, one day..." -radius
