Greg Bowen's Bow'n Web

Traditional Bowhunters of Maryland--TBM

This Bow'n Web was the "unofficial" website, for The Traditional Bowhunters of Maryland (TBM) for just over three years (12/09/97 - 01/01/01). It was provided without the use of club funds, as time allowed. Due to all of you who frequently visit this site, the club decided to have an official website supported by club funds. My commitments to family (see photo above), Scouts, church, and work have demanded more time lately, so I took the opportunity to turn over the webmaster duties for the TBM-specific (news) content. I will attempt to maintain the (more static) archery and heraldry references in the Bow'n Web as time permits (see Purpose and Content, below).

I hope you find the content can be informative. For details of recent changes, see What's New!

Purpose and Content: Rack in the Snow
The Bow'n Web is for those who are interested in traditional archery (especially those just getting started or curious about its history). The web provides an introduction to traditional achery, featuring cross-links to a hyper-linked dictionary of common archery terms and a taxonomy describing how the terms are related. Also included are archery associations you can join, a bibliography for references to read or watch, archery tips, traditional archery suppliers, 'who's who' in archery history (and some of their quotes), links to other sites, and other archery items. The Bow'n Dictionary and Taxonomy can be used as examples for those interested in Systematic Software Reuse or Domain Engineering (DE) [since that is one of my technical interests]. The site also includes information on heraldry and a little (Bowen) genealogy.
