Border Archery

Restacking some of our timbers for a new compressor to arrive. Look at that quilting... i spy with my little eye some nice bows ahead! :-)

WA Instinctive Class: Rules Help needed. We are reading the rules: 22.4.Instinctive Bow Division For the Instinctive Bow Division the following items are permitted: 22.4.1.... A bow of any type, which complies with the common meaning of the word bow as used in target archery, consisting of a handle/riser and grip (no shoot-through type) and two flexible limbs each ending in a tip with a string nock. The riser is produced of a natural or resin based material (e.g.wood, bamboo, horn, cloth, fibreglass, and a portion of the riser may include carbon/graphite or metal). The riser must be of laminated construction or one piece of wood. The bow may be of a take-down type and may incorporate factory installed metal fittings in the riser for limb attachment, sight mount inserts, cushion plunger insert and stabilizer bushings only. The bow may include a single adjustable limb for tiller adjustment only, but may not have adjustable limb pockets for bow weight adjustment. The riser may include thin synthetic laminates up to 6 mm in width to use for limb/pocket protection for structural use within the riser, but no more than one quarter of the riser's construction may be produced of metal or synthetic material. The riser must contain some wood or bamboo. For non-takedown bows, limb laminates of any material that fade into the riser section are permitted. The bow is braced for use by a single string attached directly between the two string nocks, and in operation is held in one hand by its handle (grip) while the fingers of the other hand draw and release the string.

and you will note "but no more than one quarter of the riser's construction may be produced of metal or synthetic material. " If you look at the World Level events you can see risers with Considerable (60%+) Solid Black materials in them...
Can anyone advise if there are any rule updates that superceed what is written in the rulebook.
Or is the 25% rule a rule that isn't implemented?

I can see England from 'ere. #Borderbows #Borderarchery

Not your usual view of Carbon fiber. This could be considered edge grain. The up and over or the cross weave leaves great patterns. Just couldnt resist the moulded solid carbon centre. With the added triple spines of our normal layup. Plus the vertically stacked carbon in our phenolic makes this one solid riser.

High gloss and detailed knurling

Big drop little drop. This bow is special! #forthosethatknow

Carbon carbon everywhere. Please dont tell me phenolic is flexy. Not at Border it isnt 😉

Some autumnal colours on this special bow #carbon #coverthunter

No surface left infettled. Machines make flats. Humans make curves 😉

Everything else is just a copy! #innovation #borderbows #coverthunter #borderarchery #tradarchery #tradbow #recurve #superrecurve #hexlimbs

Joe wanted to test strings. Back in 2014. We dont recomend BCY X, small print now stated. Lets progress.
The point of this post is more to show our bow speed. Real world. Fingershot. String silencers. Appropreate tiller.

Carbon carbon everywhere!

Carbon in its many textures.

Just got the limbs to sort out for a full bow pic. #oneoff

Visited to pick up a Tempest riser and limbs, everyone was very knowledgable and friendly and the bows are just stunning. The location is beautiful why buy a soulless import bow when you can visit the workshops and meet the experts who make your bow and get a top quality bow with great aftercare made in the UK?

Very friendly staff, what Sid doesn't know about archery I think isn't worth knowing. Knowledageble and the workshop tour is really interesting. A wide variety of bows, limbs and risers available. Some in stock others are ordered, and made on site. I'd highly recommend buying your equipment from here not only that but border bows have been in business since he 1940's!

Thank you Border bows for making fantastic bows That actually are as Good as they look. And Always Answer and helps out when needed. :). This is how you get liftime customers ���

Sid gave me a full tour of the workshops, absolutely incredible to see and learn from! The amount of care and hard work that goes into the bows is that of sheer excellence!!!



I have purchased a left 43 pound, 70 inch draw bow! Beautiful design, brilliantly made and an absolute pleasure to shoot!



I highly recommend visiting and buying a bow from Borders Archery!!



A massive thank you for everything Sid! I only wish we could have spent more time learning from you and I thoroughly enjoyed our conversations �
