Im without a bow!!!

brackshooter · February 06, 2007, 01:05:00 PM

Oops! Just a word of warning: Dont list your bow in the classifieds unless you really want to sell it! Listed my Wapiti just to see what would happen, and now its sold! Leaves me in an interesting position: no bow, and about $700 to spend, and lots of options. I want to start shooting longbows, and have two libertys coming to me in a few days to test. Assuming I shoot them well, that is probably the bow I would buy. But I have always shot recurves, and may end up going that direction. Do not want to order a new bow unless its from Liberty or someone like them with a short wait, as this is my only bow. Any suggestions?

There not High dollar bows but you might want to take a look at Kohannah's. Bob has them in stock and I'm sure his waiting time is short for a made to order bow. I just ordered a Kurve he had in stock and it should be here buy Thursday.

I normally shoot 65-70# at my 31" draw. I want a 64" recurve or a 66" longbow. Just not sure which to get. Deerhntr, I will look at the Kohannahs. Thanks

With $700 you could get a heck of nice bow!

captaincaveman · February 06, 2007, 02:02:00 PM

let me do some checking. There is a feller that I shoot indoor 3-D with that had a couple Morrisons he wanted to get rid of. We shoot tommorrow night. I'll see what he has left

Rose Oak bows are nice also and I have heard that he doesn't have a long waiting list also.

James Wrenn · February 06, 2007, 03:01:00 PM

Black Widow has a short wait time.

I checked out the RoseOak Bows Yesterday, they are some Fine Looking Bows, and even a Po' Boy like Me could Buy One and end up with a Great Bow!!

Rose Oak is at the top of my list if I dont get a Liberty. I guess I will know more after I have the test bows to play with.

Sorry coyote, too short for me. 4runr, who is Mark Baker?

Terry_Green · February 06, 2007, 08:36:00 PM

GUYS - please, PowWow isn't the forum do to bow business. It's fine to hash out what to get, but please restrict the actual getting and selling either via an offline PM or email, or take it to the Traditional Classifieds forum.

Thanx for your understanding.

Rob.

You cant go wrong with a Liberty. I bet his wait time will go up in the near future.

Kingstaken · February 06, 2007, 10:43:00 PM

OK,

First thing I see is your short at least 3 bows. maybe more. LOL If I had only one bow I'd be hard pressed to try to sell it. I have 10 bows (guessing without counting) currently. Of course add them all up I might make 700. Most of them are selfbows of my own making. I cannot imagine having one or none.

Good luck in your search.
