Title: Please help ID this Longbow
Post by: crgibson on January 16, 2011, 01:29:00 AM

Can anyone help me with some info on this bow? I can not find anything online about the Western Robin 68" 50# @30 189fps its lite and fast or faster then anything else I have. Would like to know is it made in Canada or USA?, how long did Western make bows and where? Thanks for your Help, Chuck   I am having a hard time loading photos on this thread.  You can find me at photo bucket under enterprise401..thanks           (http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/ff371/enterprise401/189fps.jpg)       (http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/ff371/enterprise401/IMG_0027.jpg)    (http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/ff371/enterprise401/IMG_0030.jpg)   (http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/ff371/enterprise401/IMG_0031.jpg)  (http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/ff371/enterprise401/IMG_0095.jpg)

It only took me all night and half the morning to get my pix posted. Happy me. I hope someone out there has owned a Western bow or knows some history and can help me out. If not I like the bow it seems to be a good shooter fast, flat,and straight.  Thanks again  Chuck

Anybody have any ideas? Who Western is where they are from or who made bows for them? Thanks for looking. Chuck

Chuck,
That is a nice looking bow and you have gotten my curiousity up. I'm sure that someone with more knowledge of the bow will chime in soon. I'll be watching this thread closely.
