Title: Martin Damon Howatt Custom Bushmaster
Post by: elkhunter45 on April 21, 2016, 07:26:00 AM: I have one on the way from a popular auction sight. I had been looking for an inexpensive 50# longbow since I have given my 57# custom one to my son. I had one back in the early 90's and it was my first longbow. It was the impetus that got me to have my custom one made exactly 20 years ago this month. I seems that I have come full circle. Anybody on here still shooting one of these?

I Sent you a p.m. about that bow if it's the one I think it is?
If it was the same bow the condition was good.
