I should be getting my Black Widow SAIII today when I get off work! I sold one of my rifles so I could some arrows too. I think I am going to the shop Monday or Tuesday. I don't know what shaft I will end up with. Hopefully Axis or something like them. Bow is like I said earlier a SAIII 58" 53@28. Nice sice for either one of my blinds.

My Widows are similar....been using CE heritage 250s out of them for close to 12 years with good results.

Never dropped a string on one but they didn't get their reputation for being junk! Congrats

I would believe that your anticipation is running a little high.

You won't regret getting a Widow. Got my PSA as a wedding gift from my wife. Shot it exclusively for 10 years. Learned quickly that I should not shoot two arrows at the same spot...arrows are expensive. Took a lot of deer with it.

Just got my PLX last week....always wanted one. I really should have bought one a long time ago.

While I was down with shoulder surgery.  I had a buddy come and try my pch out.  He had never shot a widow.  By the time he left my house, he was shooting softball size groups at 40 yards consistently.  He is one of the most methodical shots I have ever seen with a recurve and it shows.

Congratulations! I really Love my Autumn Oak too. Looks, and Performance.
Don't forget the pictures!

I don't use photobucket anymore. I could text them to someone if they would post them for me.

Replace the o-rings, wax the pins, new string...with bow hush on loop ends plus silencers (has good luck with hush puppies or the BW spiders). Play around with brace height...mine likes 8 &1/2 to 8& 5/8. Check brace height periodically.

Might need a new shelf rest. You may want to swap out the limb bolts for the brass ones.

Stu-Miller calculator is a decent tool to play around with to figure out a matching arrow combo.
