Title: Abbott Longbows
Post by: luvnlongbow on September 15, 2010, 09:01:00 PM
A while back I traded for an Abbott longbow with another member of this site. I have been shooting this bow a lot recently and all I can say is if you haven't shot one of these bows  you owe it to yourself to try one.

Agreed!
Steve's bows are something of a sleeper. It's the only bow I use now.

Steve makes a very good bow for a very reasonable price.

I don't have a Abbott but have shot his bows several times at OC Archery. I shot one of his recurves at Big Bear. That is one sweet bow and the recurve is fast.

My friends and I have had several Abbott longbows. Every one of them shot great and was real purty to look at. I'm on my third one now. One heck of a bow at a very reasonable price.

I had a LH Abbott LB that I bought after meeting Steve at Denton Hill several years ago. They are very good shooting bows and very well crafted. They are a lot of bow for the price and Steve is a great guy.

Yup, excellent bows.  If looking for a D-bow the Abbott is a very good choice and very affordable.  They show up used from time to time, prices are quite reasonable compared to some others.
