2025 Bows Wish List
« on: January 03, 2025, 06:44:25 PM »
Am continuously interested year after year in what bows will be new for me and for others. I always look forward with much anticipation
to a new experience and like to share in the anticipation of others.

Would relish the opportunity to acquire a lower poundage 62” TimberGhost – all G10 riser…42@28 …My 58”[email protected] G10 TGX riser is a gem and has seen 64 hunts so far this season. Note...Kent has never bult one. I am pleading with him.

Also, wish to acquire a Big Jim Thunderchild for a date with a gob.

What 2025 new bow plans do others have?

My list would be what bows I hope to build this year; I'm far too cheap to actually buy one.   :laugh:  My current goals for this year include a rocky mountain maple self bow and a juniper recurve backed with sinew.  Both are underway and both will be really cool if they don't explode!

I'm fairly certain that a new Centaur longbow is in my near future. I acquired a used one from a friend last year and quickly found out what all the fuss was about. On the new one I'm dialing in length, draw weight, and grip.

Can't wait.   :campfire:

Nada--zilch--none.....

Got plenty of bows to keep me busy......

Might need some new arrow this year......

Time and place is what I want/need.....

Finding the public or private land location & dedicating time to hunt would go so much further in my book of happiness....

But each to their own.......there are a lot of nice bow out there to try and to hunt with....

Just edited my post...........I'm staying with my Hoyt Satori---it's the best shooting bow I've ever owned and I've owned a bunch.
This will be my 3rd season with the Satori and that's a record for me. :readit:

Happy New Year to you all!

Looking for a 62” widow PSA so I can get myself back into the trad life post shoulder surgery. Seems I can never find a used one when I’m looking for one. Might just have to order a new one.

I have all I want or need in my modest collection of two identical draw weight Sierra longbows. 

What I covet the most for 2025 is time with my family, a few productive DIY hunts on public lands, and a little deeper relationship with God.

Contentment.  A rare trait among archers!   :laugh:

Wanted to get me a shorter lighter poundage bow than I usually shoot. So here is my first bow for 2025 my 52"amo 1972 Bear Black Panther Hunter recurve. It was an economically priced bow I believe that Bear Archery made for other retail stores like Kmart, Montgomery Wards, and Sears. It shoots really nice, at least to 20 yards. I've been hunting with it this late archery season.

Pretty content with my Robertson Ram Styk at the moment but I’m always open for a Hill-style or anything interesting in general
