Title: 55" Shakespeare Wonderbow help
Post by: elbow on December 03, 2014, 11:58:00 AM
Shakespeare Wonderbow, 55", 40@ 28. Can anyone tell me about these bows? Are they smooth to 29"? Would a 3555 with 145 grain Razorheads and 50 grain insert shoot well at my 29" draw? Any indie on these bows appreciated. Thanks, Craig

Here some links with some information on the Shakespeare bows.

I have owned the  Sierra 52", Cascade x-29 50" and another one which I think was 60".  I  do not draw 29" as you do. However, at my 28" draw I did not notice any finger pinch or a "wall" as some call it.  They were very good smooth shooting bows based on my experiences.

I've not owned one (yet), but from what I've shot, those Wonderbows are underappreciated gyms.  I imagine you will be pleased with a 55" pulling to 29".  The Wonderods (fly rods) are amongst my favorites.

I've got a Shakespeare Super Necedah, 60 lbs, and a 50 lb Cascade.  They both shoot great!  I like them better than my Bear Grizzly and Black Bear bows.  

I shoot my Super Necedah all the time.  I use it for hunting, 3D shoots, and stump shooting.  They are smooth, quiet, and accurate, and the ones I have do not exhibit any hand shock.  

I love 'em!
