Title: Bama Bows Elite Classic
Post by: Bakes168 on September 12, 2011, 02:35:00 AM
My hat is off to Nate Steele of Bama Bows, I just bought a slightly used two-piece Elite Classic courtesy of a fellow tradganger (thanks Mike). It's my first custom built longbow and it really blew me away. I couldn't be happier with the speed, smoothness, beauty, craftsmanship and shoot-ability of this bow. It shot right where I was looking! I only got to shoot it for a couple of days but I'll be back home in the spring and I'll be all over it     :D  
Just wanted to share with everyone!

Sorry if the pics come out a little blurry. The riser is stained curly maple with an osage orange accent stripe, red elm limbs and the limbs are tipped with elk antler over more osage orange.
