A few weeks ago Gary posted a pic of his semi recurve. I had always wanted one of Gary's bows and I liked the design of the new bow so I contacted him to see about having one built. Gary is very good with communication, he's patient and easy to work with. The Razorback is only available in 62" length. I requested a low 50#s draw weight and the bow came out at 51# @28". Gary combined what he thought made great shooting bows between longbows and recurves to develop the semi recurve and I must agree, it's one fine shooting bow. The bow has a great grip, it's smooth on the draw, plenty fast, zero hand shock and it's almost dead silent, probably the quietest bow I've shot. Gary knows what makes a great performing bow and he nailed it with the Razorback.

Gary is a good guy,had one of his longbows that got to heavy for me and sold and that bow looks like a winner.

Semi recurves were popular for years and years. Glad to see they are gaining popularity again.

That's a great looking bow.

Gary makes great bows and it's fun to get a bow made for you. Here's my 1966 semi recurve, and it is also a great shooter. Congratulations on your bow.

E-mail coming as soon as I can get some free time, Gary. Won't be off again till Monday, but looking forward to discussing a new Razorback with you (still referring to it as the "Delirious", haha).

God bless ya, Gary, and thanks for all the advice you've given me for well over a decade.

Kent Alan. Thanks for the compliment. These days, especially, its nice to hear a person has good friends. Marian and I are going to a traditional archery shoot at Moses Lake, WA. We will probably camp out in the hills a little bit also on the way there and on the way back. Will have a computer but my email and messages may be a little bit slow for a couple weeks as to spotty service.

I think you'll like the Razorback Rick. For me, it's the most accurate bow I've ever shot.

Billy, I have had about three of Gary's bows in the past, all well made and nice shooters. I am looking forward to see what Gary has come up with this time.

That is a neet bow I like the limb profile .

Tim Thank you for the compliment. My whole life in the Alaska bush and still today is basically keep it simple. I have found over the years that too much new and improved can turn out to be a failure. The Razorback bow, however, is a progressive bow for me. It was time to move on to a bow that performs well under adverse conditions, dependable, designed for limb stability and can shoot a heavy arrow. Also like so many I’m getting older and its hard to struggle with the heavy longbows that I used to shoot.
