My PCH made it to WV yesterday. I set it up and took her to the woods last evening and again this morning. I had a nice buck give me the slip this morning, he was with a hot doe so I hope to see him again soon.
I'm on days off and have some chores to get done today but if it goes as planned, I'll have the next few days to try to introduce him to the Widow.
Here's a few pictures. It's 60", 47 at 28. Tiger Myrtle limbs and Brazilian Rosewood riser. I've been shooting my PTF and took to the PCH like a duck to water. It's a shooter for sure.

Nice bow, I've been wanting one since I first started seeing them on here.
Nice wood combo on that widow :thumbsup:
It's the right length, the right weight, and looks to pretty also. Hope you do well with it.It sounds just like what I would order.
I have a PTF and want a PCH. I'm glad you transitioned well to it. Great looking bow! Good luck
nice woods.
:thumbsup:
Beautiful Bow.
nice !
Great looking bow!!
A looker for sure.
Congrats!
Nice wood choices! Good luck on breaking her in.
pretty
Very nice, well chosen.
Thanks fellas. I really like this bow. I like the PTF I bought used. It has the the Asbell grip. After shooting different bows at Nixa, I went with the standard grip on this one.
I couldn't get the PTF quiet enough to suit me with the D97 string that came with it and put a B50 string on it for a bit. I then twisted up a 450 string, used Bow Hush and Puppies and was happy.
I put the D97 string with the spider silencer that came with it on the PCH and it had a little more noise than I liked. I then tried my spare 450 and it's very quiet. More so than the PTF.
I'm heading to the woods. Hope to have a picture to post by dark!
who makes the 450 string I cant get my PCH quiet at all. Makes a distinct thump.
I just had TWO made for mine......Don't know if its 450 or not and don't really care...

the good book says "The shalt not covet" --- oh crap, I better get over to the church and go to confession..
Got my first BW this hunting season and the more I shoot it the more I like it I can only fine one big prolbem with Black widow bows and that is one is not enough
It is doing the job on the does too
Nice bow! I just got a new to me bow with Tiger Myrtle limbs and it's beautiful wood. Good Luck with her! :thumbsup:
Buckmaster,
I twisted the 450 myself. I'm a novice string maker, just making them for my self and family. I may be full of crap but I think string type is sorta relative. My brother likes my TS1 strings better on his longbows but the 450 seems quieter for me on mine. I think the release plays into it, but again, I may be wrong. I like TS1 on my Dalaa better than 450.
The 450 was quieter on my Widows, for me, than the D97 even with Bow hush and puppies. I like to tinker so trying different string materials is enjoyable to me.
I pulled a rookie play and over shot a doe, while on the ground, at 15 yards this morning. The PCH was quiet enough that she never figured out what was happening and if not for the brush I could have had another shot.
I like a quiet bow and the 450 with Terrys girls Bow hush and puppies is working great on the PCH.
I'm going to grab a bite to eat, get my Summit and try to get set up on that buck that I saw yesterday.
Thanks for the comments on the bow, I sure do like her.
Good luck fellas.
Very nice bow!
Really considering one of these :thumbsup:
What Terry said, Put an SBD string on my PCH and it is now mouse quiet.
Hey Bub it looks like a nice one. I think you"ll do well
Hey Bub it looks nice.
Why thank you BB. You'll have to give her a try next time we get together. You may like it as well as your Lost Creeks.
