Hello to all from a newbee to the Tradgang.I would like to express my satisfaction concerning the customer service and quality that Allen Boice provides.He far surpassed my expectations.My new Edge hybrid is the best shooting bow I have ever shot,had it less than two weeks and ordered another,a Contender this time.I,ve been shooting recurve bows since 1986 and never had to have a longbow until I handled a Liberty.Really smooth,no handshock,fast,so easy to shoot and gorgeous.If you are looking for a custom longbow give him a call.

I've never shot one but have read good reviews of his bows. What is your set-up, woods, wait time? Any pics to share? AND...Welcome to Tradgang!

I got a Contender from Allen earlier this year. Fine bow. I think he used some magic on this one.

You can't go wrong with an Allen Boice bow. I've been shooting his bows for 10 years. I've owned every one of his models. They all shoot wonderful, I'm honored to call him my friend and he is one of the greatest guys you will ever meet, and a fantastic boyer. I just love his bows. Ray Hamilton >>------->

The craftsmanship of Allen's bows is simply perfect. It just does not get any better. When I decided to build bows my goal was to achieve his quality of craftsmanship.

We have 3 of Alan's bows. All awesome. My 60" chief is my go to bow! I draw an d shoot full length shafts. My buddies say wow those limbs bend a long ways and deliver a wallop!

My wife got me an english almost a year ago. It is like stated above "perfect". There was not a mistake on the bow. And it shoots amazing. Its a 68" 52@29", english with yew cores and black glass and probably the prettiest cocobolo piece for a riser that i have ever seen. Did i mention that this bow shoots incredably.
