I think it's a Hungarian. It looks very similar to mine.

Hi Crispvs, what poundage bow do you use? I'm looking at getting a 35 or 40 for myself. Oh, and could this possibly be the bow http://www.bowshop.eu/?term=26

Not being the strongest man in the world, mine is a 37lb Grozer Hungarian Extra 'C'.

At the time I was also looking at getting a Kassai bow like the one in your link but the Grozer turned out to be easier to get on the day. One day, perhaps when my son is a little older, I might get to use it a bit more.

Graham,

I didn't know Chester was happening this year! Confusedhock:

If it is then I would certainly like to be there. It doesn't seem to be on our list of events for this year though - I wonder if it might clash with something else. When is it scheduled to take place?

Hi Quintus,

Great pics. Your lads turn out is great, I'm sure you are proud of them.

Hi Crispvs, yes Chester is on June 29th and 1st July but a bit of a different format to what we are used to. Hope to see you there.

Regards,

Gary
