Title: My new longbow
Post by: hitman on July 12, 2015, 07:45:00 PM
I picked up my new bow from Mike Treadway back in April at the Kentucky tradfest. It is a 3 piece takedown 46#@28" and 60" long. Chechen and coco bolo with quilted maple limbs on front with arrow inlays and antler tips with the shiniest finish you ever saw on a bow. Other than shooting as smooth as any bow I ever had in my hand with no hand shock at all,it is a real beauty.    (http://i1149.photobucket.com/albums/o599/hitman52/new%20bow%20021.jpg) (http://s1149.photobucket.com/user/hitman52/media/new%20bow%20021.jpg.html)    (http://i1149.photobucket.com/albums/o599/hitman52/001.jpg) (http://s1149.photobucket.com/user/hitman52/media/001.jpg.html)

Great looking bow. I've got one of Mike's bows, 54" one piece longbow. Mike is one of the nicest guys you'll ever deal with. I really need to get to some shoots down in NC where Mike will show up. It's been too many years since I've talked to him.

I special ordered it last year at the Kentucky tradfest. He had one he had made for himself and I had to have one.
