Well I have been shooting trad for almost a year and loving it. I currently shoot a chek-mate falcon and it's a fine shooting bow no complaints. But I have always wanted to try a longbow but I don't want to go spend a huge amount of money just to find out it's not for me and the recurve suits me. Now what is a cheap but not cheaply made longbow? I don't want to get something that will give me a bad taste in my mouth if you know what I mean. Is ebay safe, I have seen alot of posts on a few sites that there has been alot of scams lately? Thanks.
If you like the Chek-mate, I would start with their longbows. I have found the Crusader to be a relatively inexpensive bow vs. the performance and aesthetics. There are others, but Chek-Mate will give you a good bang for your buck. They are a sponsor here as well.
what do you consider Cheap?
no more than $300 at the most. Is it possible to get something used for that price if possible less?
Go to the classifieds and take a look around. Some Martins and a few others in your price range there right now.
