Curiosity Question

[LittleChief]

Sorry for what may or may not be a dumb question, but has anyone ever made a traditional bow with a shoot through riser?

[Arthur P]

Here's one from the 60's. This is a prototype from Sweeney.





Then this one from Sabo, looks like it's based on the Sweeney.



One from Drake.





And this wild contraption.





Then these longbows. #1 1940 (J.O. Lowell), #2 1931 (C.J. Cameron) and #3 1897 (G.L. Thorne). Take a hard look at #3 and tell me the Whisker Bisquit is a new idea. [8D]
