Toby Essick, one of the owners of Black Widow Bows, gives some insight into the craftsmanship that goes into making a traditional bow.
Black Widow Bows
Since 1957 Black Widow Custom Bows has been building traditional archery equipment.
Black Widow bows are unique in design and very complex to build. Just the handle alone has up to thirty-seven glue lines (depending on the model) and requires as many man-hours to build as do most complete traditional bows being made today. Lightning fast limbs are tapered and tillered as only Black Widow bowyers know how. The result of all this effort and expertise is a bow.. a legendary bow...a Black Widow bow...whose smoothness, stability and speed will amaze you. As one of our satisfied customers put it, “It’s the only custom bow I’ve ever had, and I’ve had about all of them, that has everything I want. It’s fast, smooth, stable and beautiful too. And all in the same bow!” ... That about says it all.
