I've done a few dumb things, and wasted a bit of money from time-to-time when it comes to my traditional archery adventures. But I will never regret shooting a Black Widow bow. They are fantastic.
Now just work to have your shooting skills sharp enough to see what that bow is really capable of!

Congratulations. It was the same for me...finally bought mine in 2009 after drooling over them back in high school '92-'93. With all of the new choices in woods, I still have to admit the "Autumn Oak" is still my favorite...just something about it.
I'm going to order another set of limbs for my PSAIII at Kalamazoo in January.
BTW...check out the Pelican vault case. If you do a lot of traveling, it's the best!

Nice bow. It will out last you. They are bullet proof.

I'm not much of a recurve shooter, but I have shot with a lot of guys using Widows. They are handsome bows that PERFORM. You will no doubt enjoy it immensely. Congratulations! Now you need to get a new camera to do justice to all the deer you will take with it this fall, because after all its in the rule book - you must post pics.

I hope! I am not the great white hunter that I wish I was. In fact I have been hunting on and off with a bow since I was 16 and have never harvested a archery animal. To say I am bad in the woods is a understatement. I consider it a successful season if I even see a deer. I'm hoping that this year will be different.
I like the bow and am in the process of tweaking it down to try and get rid of my fishtailing. So far it doesn't seem to be near as fast as my Samick Sage though the Sage is 1# heavier. But the draw is so much smoother than the Sage that it is very noticeable.

Smeans, I suspect it will shoot much quicker once you get the fishtailing under control. That zaps a lot of K.E., as-well-as speed from the arrow.

Nice one! I have a Widow longbow. Only problem with the Widow is you will find yourself wanting to buy another Widow.
