RE: Recurve options
Palmer makes good bows also. Very similar to Bob Lee bows in some ways, actually worked with Lee for some years before going off on his own. But he has a bit different limb design that some say gives a bit better performance than Bob Lee.
I shot in the group in front of Palmer at the '89 Texas Field Archery Association State Championships. He got kind of miffed at me when I asked him about his Bob Lee bow. Palmer informed me in no uncertain terms that it was not a Bob Lee, that he himself was the bowyer, and he looked exceedinglyinsulted by my question.Well, it wasn't MY fault! The bow looked like almost exactly like a Lee but I never knewLee to use the kind of wood the bow was made from.Still one of the most embarrassing moments I ever had on an archery range.
