Title: Anybody shoot a Schafer 3 piece longbow?
Post by: slayer1 on September 18, 2008, 08:50:00 AM
Any comments would be appreciated. How do they shoot are they quiet? Can you get the riser made from an exotic wood? Post some pictures if you have them.

Check the web site. I think they are among the very best of what is available today, and awesome customer service to boot. You can get exotic risers too.

Here is a link to a few pics of the one I tried in April. Very fine bow, I would rate it number one or two of the 25 different bows I tried. I have a while to wait until I get mine.
It is a well mannered bow, easy to shoot well, as quiet as any other FF, r/d longbow.

Scott, a friend of mine has two and two recurves. They are top of the line. fast, smooth, quiet and very easy on the eyes. he's been a recurve man all his life till he got the first silvertip longbow. He was a great shot with the recurve, but since he got that longbow The blood trailing has gotten alot shorter. At least the 5 or 6 times I've been involved. Don
