Hello Guys, How many shoot T/D bows and what kind do you have thanks.
Cody
We as archer's must keep it alive by helping others into the sport WE LOVE.

A couple Black Widows and a Morrison and a Quillon , I find they are so much easier to travel with , I have an older aluminum compound bow case thay can hold 2 takedown bows about 2 and 1/2 dozen arrows and still have room for some clothes . By the way did you ever get hooked up with some fish arrows ? Fred

have two Widows that, unfortunately, aren't getting much use, and 4 Hill sleeve take downs.   I really like the sleeve take downs... nothing could be simpler.   In fact, it looks like Widow has gone to a variation of it in their new system.     Travel is the issue... not a problem with the minivan, but try getting two peopls, some gear and a few longbows into a Geo Metro!

Here's a pic of my travel setup:



That's a Hill and a Widow and I can get a dozen arrows in the case.  The case is a standard $30 plastic arrow case, generally available at most archery shops.

I have 3 Fred Bear t/d recurves and 2 St. Charles longbows. I love the t/d's; in fact I made some t/d arrows that I plan on hunting with this coming season.
It's not what you kill but how you hunt...

3 Bighorns and a Rivers Edge....that I'd like to trade for another Bighorn.

i have a widow psav. takedowns have larger risers. the heavy riser improves my accuracy.

Black Widow, Bear B Handles, Bruin WoodMaster. Take downs fit better in a bush plane.


I have some old ones too that are fun to shoot from time to time.....

I was born with nothing and I still have most of it left.

I have a Big Horn T/D recurve 70# @27". Planning to buy a Acadian Three Stick Tree stick longbow.
Looks nice and Tim was more helpful than i had expected on the phone!!
If you are a bowhunter, you are my friend!

I dont own any store bought takedowns (or any store bought bows at all for that matter), but I've built a few.  Here are two that I happen to have pics of on photobucket:

My sleeved takedown hickory recurve:

A Ballistick recurve TD and a Treadway long bow.  Prefer the single piece but needed something for the ease of traveling.
Life is short.  Shoot the good arrows first.
