Double Bass Doerfler bows

I have an Egidius Dorfler Bow. It is the shorter French style bow that they make and the "top of the line" from Dorfler. For the price point, I think that they are a great bow. Well balanced and more responsive than other bows in the same price range. My dorfler bow holds the string well and produces a good tone from the bass. I also have a professional, hand made bow by a modern US bow maker. The Dorfler bow is not in the same caliber as my other bow but it also was considerably less expensive.
