Title: Which bow would you keep?
Post by: mqqse on February 11, 2007, 12:31:00 AM

Got to move a bow soon, and it's between two of my turkey bows....

Bob Lee Classic, 60", 50@28


-or-


Black Widow TFB 60", 48@28"?


Both bows are black and vanish nicely in my Double Bull.........just can't decide!

I'd keep the 50@28,just for the extra 2 pounds of draw weight.

The Widow has great resale value and the Lee is a great bow.  IMHO.

Say see ya to the spider.

I've owned both brands you mention and happen to prefer Widows...they just feel better to me.  But I'm not the guy shooting your bow.  Sometimes we tend to get too caught up in what others think we should do and forget to let logic and our own preferences/situation suggest a solution.  One logical way is to forget the bows' market values/what others think, carefully test them both from your blind under the same conditions you will be shooting under, and go with the one you feel better with.  Pretty simple.

Both are great bows.  I don't think you'll make a wrong decision choosing one over the other.  Best of luck with the decision.

let the widow go and shoot the lee

Title: Re: Which bow would you keep?
Post by: mqqse on February 11, 2007, 10:36:00 AM

I shoot them both well, thus the tough decision.  For fun,  I'll tally up the responses in a day or so and sell the one tradgang suggests.

I don't have a clue,I haven't shot any of Bob's bows.I shot a few widows,but they just didn't feel right to me.But,

if you shoot them both equally,then maybe you should ask folks why they would keep the one over the other?It may help you decide?

Post by: pete p on February 11, 2007, 11:44:00 AM

everyone has an opinion and here is mine...which is based on fact. the Lee is faster. the Lee is lighter in mass weight. the Lee does not look like a block

Title: Re: Which bow would you keep?
Post by: Kelly on February 11, 2007, 11:55:00 AM

Definitely sell the Lee because the Black Widow TFB(one piece) is their best shooting bow, IMHO.

In the spirit of the Tradgang giveaway, why not draw names from those who are interested and let the winner decide which one he wants. That will take care of your angst in trying to make the decision.  :bigsmyl:  

Just trying to help,

If it was any other Widow than the TF, I would say let it go, but THe TFs are the sweet Widow. Keep it!! Shawn

Sell them both a get a 54" Arroyro curve and have coin left over for arrows or what ever maybe another bow.. If not keep the Widda dump the LEE IMHO.<><

I'm just glad you sold the Palmer! Keep the one you have the most confidence in.

Title: Re: Which bow would you keep?
Post by: mqqse on February 11, 2007, 11:27:00 PM

Hey Ben, glad the Palmer is working out for you.  

I shot the Bob Lee today and could do no wrong.  Quiet, swift, and on target.  I'll give the TF another shot tomorrow....

Thanks for all the thoughts and suggestions...

Since they both shoot good for you I would keep the quietest one for hunting.
