Re: Barbarian - Thing of beauty
I know it looks a bit different but gives it a similar feel to a recurve. In terms of stability in the hand this is second to none.
I too had a shot of Roberts bow. At the time I thought it was ok but when I got home and started to think about it I knew that I had to have one. This is one of only 4 made to date, all owned by top archers
- up until now
We will have to see if I can earn my stripes

Thats a very nice bow Stephen, I am sure you are going to enjoy shooting it, no doubt about it Nick builds a very good bow...Glenn...
Re: Barbarian - Thing of beauty
Very nice but like LB said you got to make sure you string it properly on a serious note .Osage looks nice ,70lb @28" may it prove to be a really good shooter .
