Ozbow

I get quite a few people coming to my place to try out my bows and the lightest draw weight I had until now was 42#, so I've made one that the ladies and youngsters should be able to shoot.
Must say I don't mind flicking a few through it too, it's almost effortless and the groups are good.

Bow stats: Flatline Raptor, 58" n-n, 30#@28".
Timbers: limbs; Black Palm and Orange Boxwood.
Riser; QLD Walnut, Red Bean, Silver Ash with Black Palm and Aust Ebony inlays.
Cheers, Rob.

Damn Rob you keep moving the goal posts! Stunning , mate simply stunning!

Absolutely beautiful Rob. You're every bit as much an artist as what you are a bowyer.

Hey Rob really like the wood figure in those limbs excellent, just like the rest of the bow. Love looking at your work as always.

Cheers Wayno

Holy crap Rob!..............that is just amazing work. You are a master, no doubt.
Mind Blown......again.
Damn.

When I get the cash, I'll be having one of yours..........

Probably one of the most intricate bows out side of Blacktail [ which go for about $4000+ US] I have ever seen.Truly beautiful Rob. why would anyone want to buy US stuff when they could get one of yours and feature all Aussie wood into the bargain.

What a great job.

Love the timbers in the bow.

Truly a thing of beauty Rob. Great design and execution, thanks for showing us.

Cheers.... Rod

Hey Rob,

That is nothing short of fricken beautiful mate, awesome job. The effect that the end grain of that black palm gives is stunning, the combination of all the timbers is just incredible.

Practically called a Bow but really a work of Art.

Very nice

Gee wiz fella's thanks very much, I'm very humbled by your comments. But really it's nature that is the artist I'm just sticking bits of natural art together in the most pleasing way I can think of.

Funny you should say that Swami,,,, this is what I thought they meant by prac/art when I was in high school.

Thanks again,
Rob.

Craftsmanship in this thing is nothing short of astounding!! Absolutely unreal piece Rob. Love the dark and light timber contrast in it.
