If you'd like a quality primitive style bow that's ready to shoot, our bamboo backed hickory bow might be the answer.
These bows were designed for bowhunting but are equally at home at any SCA event or even rendezvous gatherings. The heart of this bow is the Hickory. Hickory has always been an exceptional bow wood but when you add the bamboo backing you get a durable long lasting bow that will perform faithfully for you. This bow is designed with a stable, mild deflex. (That means the limbs gently arc toward the archer when un-braced.) Early in his career Howard Hill shot bamboo bows that carried this same kind of dependable deflex shape. The deflexed bow is not meant to be a speed demon. It's smooth, reliable and shoots a heavy hunting arrow consistently shot after shot.
Each of our bamboo backed hickory bows are fully tillered, stained, sealed, and ready to shoot. The handle section is wrapped in leather and, since you shoot from your knuckle, they can be shot either right or left handed.
Bows are approx. 68" with a full one-year warranty. String included. Natural materials, colors vary. Available in: 45#-50#, 50#-55#, 55#-60#, and 60#-65# at a 28" draw. Please specify below.
