Title: New Bob Lee Bow
Post by: Old Chief on May 10, 2011, 06:47:00 PM
This is my first new post, but I had to tell somebody.  The UPS driver dropped off a new Bob Lee Bow yesterday evening and I put it together and made some new arrows for it.  They are Gold Tip 5575, full length with 3 x 5 inch right wing helical fletching.  With points the total arrow weight was 426 grains.  The bow is the "Sportsman" model, 62 inches and #52 @ 28 inches and my draw length is just over 29 inches.  Shot over my "Chrony" chronogtaph today, 5 feet from the target and 5 feet in front of the bow and 15 shots averaged 205 fps.  I really want to thank Rob and "JJ" as they were a true pleasure to work with and steered me in the right direction.  I just could not be happier then I am now.

Congrats, you are going to love it.  They make great bows, but more importantly have grade A customer service.

X 2 what you said D Alaxanian, I also have been shooting Lee bows for years, none shoot better for me, only problem is they are to hard on my pocketbook, I have them working on 2 more bows as we speak! Everyone should own at least one Bob Lee!  :)

I had a BL and it was a 62#. I was shooting 55# max in my other bows and loved the way this bow shot. I had it in my head it was to heavy for me and sold it. MISTAKE!!!

Looking at buying another someday.
GREAT bows
