Special requests or Kids-Bows by arrangement.
Bowwoods at disposal:
Yew, Osage, Elm, Black Locust, Hazel, White Ash. More special woods like Laburnum or Compression Spruce on request.
Handle, Tips and Arrowrest:
The handle is shaped according to the customer’s wishes: the classic shape is possible, but also a more or less pronounced pistol grip. Depending on preference and hand size, the grip can be either fine or bulky. My grips are always rather fine and designed as Z-grips close to the centre shot, which makes a firing window unnecessary and a simple arrow rest will be sufficient.
The materials used for tips and handles
can be freely chosen from my collection; for the handles (extra charge)
various leathers and other natural materials (bast/rawhide, etc.) are
available. For the nocks (no surcharge) various hardwoods, antlers, horn
in different colours are available.
