What a fantastic looking bow.
Do people still shoot the Drake bows?
This one looks so cool,I would love to shoot it.
Can anybody post more pictures of other Drake bows,and/or give some reviews as to how they shoot please.

I've seen HD flight bows come up for sale for a fraction of what this guy is asking for that bow.

I have not seen an HD bow that wasn't designed for flight shooting in a long time. This one may still gain some interest.....but not in that price range.

Chuck,

I sold one a few weeks back on the auction site. Seems like it brought about $150. I was hoping for a little more but I wasn't dreaming either.

Here are a few pictures.

Tony,

Yes, it was a nice looking bow and in great original condition. I have one more that needs a refinish when I can ever get around to it.
