Title: Bob Lee td longbows?
Post by: James Wrenn on June 03, 2007, 01:37:00 PM
Does anyone have experiances with these bows?Looking at the pictures on the website it is hard to get a scale as to the size of the risers.It also shows no pictures of the limbs so you can tell if they are more typical narrow longbow type limbs or wide flatbow limbs.Any info as to quietness and brace heights would be helpfull as well. thanks

I have a LH for sale over on the Traditional Bows for sale. Mine has a riser just like there 3PC recurve. With typical narrow longbow limbs able to made on a recurve style riser. They are very smooth and quiet set up correctly like most all. Speed is on par with all my other bows. Brace's depended on shooter 7.5-8". Mine is for sale because I HAVE TO MANY? How can that be! OK its just not getting shot.

Yes I saw yours for sale.It is wrong handed for me and about 5lbs too heavy or I would have already talked to you about it. :)Girly weight bows are getting hard to find.  ;)

I've got a micarta classic (the regular classic but with an extra piece of black micarta in the riser) with two sets of limbs: 58# and 73# at my draw length.  It's a wonderful bow.  Heavy riser, no shock, a nice big sight window.  I have short (58") limbs.  I'm thinking of picking up some light limbs for it someday(maybe 40-45#).

The Lees are also great folks to deal with..

I'd say it's more wide flatbow like as far as the limbs are concerned.  Mine likes almost 8" for brace height and is quiet.
