RE: Orynx Horn Bow
It is pretty swift, i compare it to a hickory/Bamboo bow I have.
But it is very very light and might be good for hunting in thick areas, it certainly is weather proof also.
it shoots well with light arrows also.

Well, I can't say I have ever seen anything like that. don't mean to go on and on about it, but you did a heck of a job. One quesiton, you say you split the horn in half. So I assume we are looking at the pretty side. The other side is the split side?

RE: Orynx Horn Bow
Right, My intention was to fill in the concave area with osage or another wood but after I tested the limbs, the poundage was perfect for my Grandson and the hollow area was small, I guess if i fill the hollow area with wood It will increase teh poundage to over #50.
Am getting another horn which is longer and heavier to see what I get with that one.
