Default RE: static recurves

I think my buddy got his static bamboo osage from Genisis? Cant remember being he has been gone for awhile now. You could buy the built up bamboo osage straight bow from locust creek and bend the tips for a static your self...alls thats needed would be final tillering.

Whats good about them...I figured they were the inbetween from longbows to the recurves we shoot today. I dont think they knew how to get the curves to 'unroll' back in the haydays to get more performance and it was a step up from the straight or r/d longbows of there times.....I have an older article in Mo where the cover has a cool pic, some are shooting straight longbows but most are shooting some type of static. For info on bending them get the tradbowyers bibles or check this link out. If ya got the built up ready to tiller blank from Locust Creek I think it might work!
