Hello Gang wanted to about 21 century Longbow Made by Milton Callaway about his bows and customer service thanks

Scott E

His bows shoot well. The fit and finish is kind of crude but functional. His customer service has had mixed reviews.

Are you just looking for a good shooting bow or a competition bow?

I was going to do a long winded review/response to this question but instead I have three words...Fox Triple Crown.

The Milton bows are shooters for sure, otherwise they wouldn't be so popular in tournaments.  They do shoot sweetly.  But like Scott said, the fit/finish is utilitarian IMHO and more like what you'd find on a Samick etc.  Customer service is a "?".  Some people say great things.  Others not so great.  With as many bowyers that are out there its my opinion why bother with a less than 100% reputation?

Fox Triple Crown baby!  A Ron King built bow will be heirloom quality and shoot with the best.  I can send you some pics of a flat out breathtaking one if you PM me your email address.  

A Fox will run a good several hundred more in base price than a 21st, with a longer wait time but it is well worth it IMHO.  

The 21st bows are a great shooting 'tool' and are a decent value if you weigh performance vs cost, but again, IMHO...Fox Triple Crown   ;)

Ah heck here's a peek at my Fox (can email more pics if you PM me), it's a Triple Crown Carbon, yew and boo limb core / carbon backed / yew veneers / zebrawood riser, 68", it practically shoots itself LOL.  This bow would be around $1k new with the options.  But trust me, if you put it side by side with a 21st you'd understand the cost difference:

What are friends for?    :biglaugh:     You should learn to shoot 'passable' lefty, then we can make it happen.  Yeah, this Fox is special.  When I first unpacked it when I got it a while back I made a wolf whistle and noticeable intake of breath, its absolutely flawless.  I still can't believe the riser is zebrawood, its the craziest zebrawood I've seen.  It's a sniper rifle too.

Sorry Scott, not ready to take a break from her yet.  Besides, you'll have a Big River 21st before too long  ;)

NineWorlds - Oh baby, that looks sweet!

I have a Triple Crown on order with Ron right now. All micarta riser with Bacote veneers and bacote accents.

Can't wait...! I got the last spot in his October Builds. October can't come fast enough. This is going to be my third attempt at the longbow. I think I nailed it this time with the triple crown.

your bow is sweet!

I have one of Milton's bows.  It is super smooth and shoots very well.  I have won several 3D shoots with it.  There are prettier bows, but his are shooters.
