My first Primal Tech - TexasBowhunter.com Community Discussion Forums

CamoQuest · 01-31-2023, 07:36 PM

It’s official: I’m now a member of the Primal Tech group. I got the call from Randy toward the end of December, and after a few conversations, the waiting began. I’d given him a few specs and ideas of what I was looking for, but left the majority of the decisions up to him. He’s an amazing artist and I knew I would like whatever he came up with. He finished it up last week, and we arranged to meet so I could pick it up in person.

I was blown away when he pulled that bow out of his truck. He’d sent me a few teaser pictures, but I was just about speechless seeing it in person. It’s a work of art, and I couldn’t be happier. The woods are absolutely gorgeous, and it fits my hand perfectly.

It was late when I finally made it home, but I was able to send a few down range before it got too dark to see. The bow shoots even better than it looks, in case anyone is wondering.

There are few things I enjoy more than talking bows with people, and Randy
really knows his stuff. It’s an honor to have such a beautiful piece of art to shoot, and I can’t wait to get it out on a course and in the woods.

Specs:
62” one piece longbow
40lbs @ 26 1/4”
Stabilized cottonwood burl and g10 riser, spalted maple veneers, aoudad overlays

Gorgeous bow!

ThisLadyHunts · 02-01-2023, 12:26 PM

Wow, Julie. You’re right, it IS a work of art! And nothing feels better than shooting something made to fit you. I suspect you’ll enjoy this bow for years to come.

Randy makes great bows. He's an even nicer guy! Seems to be a common refrain in the trad world, doesn't it? Great people everywhere you look.

RickBarbee · 02-03-2023, 08:32 AM

Awesome !!!

That sure is pretty. I'm thinking about a new long bow. I may be rude and ask to see it if your at Bryan next weekend if you don't mind. A group of us from fredericksburg are going to try and come up to the TBOT.

That’s a beauty Mrs Julie! Can’t wait to see it this summer

CRM_95 · 02-09-2023, 09:30 PM

Randy makes awesome bows, and they're easy to look at too. He offered to build me a new on for some pics of me in my underwear, which is weird. But it should be here by May!!

Ryan the trick to enjoying a Primal Tech now is to actually shoot said bow. Not just decorate it with underwear ornaments.
