so i came across this website and its a very interesting read in all its sections but while in the search for a new bow i found this article to be worth sharing. http://www.silviodallatorre.com/inde...ne=3&thema=103
ANyone ever tried a weighted bow?
they seem to be very well worth a try
insight?
and just to say, i have looked at this forum Bow weight
but the ones talked on silvio's website are 200 - 250 grams and are not made of traditional pernambuco
thats way different than the "heavy" 150 Gram Lipkin bow discussed
The bowmaker for Silvio, Dennis Masuzzo and others of the 'New Dutch School' is a guy named Henk te Hietbrink.
www. Hietbrinkbows.nl
He makes bows that weight 242 grams, as well as, more traditional heavy bows that weight 162 and 156 grams. I know Dennis Massuzzo and Donovan Stokes use the heavy bow. You may want to go to their websites and send them an email.
