^^^and you talk about me  

This was one of the best shooting longbows I'd ever experienced....glad they're coming back.

I might have to consider one of those. I had an Arapaho first then ordered a Dakota.  I remember bustin up nocks and feathers and limiting the arrows shot each round so I din't ruin them. Was my shooting better then? Maybe it was the bow? I can't recall what I did with the bow or when I sold it? Killed a buck at 45 paces with it, the arrow wizzed right through his heart. The shot was effortless. I can't imagine shooting that far now.
I added a 58" Morrison Cougar to my stable and killed a few with that. I loved the way the cougar looked,  Cocabolla with copperheads and pinecone carvings. I never had the same accuracy as the Dakota. My draw length and strength grew after a neck disc operation and the cougar became too short. I moved on to a recurve and a longer Acadian Woods TreeStick.  I'll order a bow or two in the spring. Maybe a Dakota.

Bob,mine is a one piece, would love to try an Arapaho !!

I thought years ago you had a three piece Cheyenne at Shawns ?

Ahhh yes I did, but I didn't get that one from Larry, that one has hit the road awhile back

Arapaho with cocobolo and osage in the riser, Max limbs, and kudu horn tips.

One of my dream bows!!!

Great bow

       

Anybody care to buy a nearly unused Shawnee?
