Big River D/R longbow finally arrived
« on: February 03, 2024, 08:42:17 PM »
After 7 weeks riding the wind, traveling from Iowa to Texas to Georgia and back to Texas.  62" 60#@30" Big River D/R longbow.  @54# at my draw, tested it with CE Heritage 250's and 100 gr brass broadhead adapters.  Two arrows with 160 gr tip and two with 190 gr tip.  Bow shoots well and pretty crisp.  Seems to like the heavier arrow better.  Snappy little bow for sure, good deal to get my shoulder back up to shooting heavier bows.  54# is adequate for anything I'll hunt in Texas.  Really happy.

I know, I have a recurve Kodiak clone (65#), 21st Century clone D/R longbow (66#) and this mild D/R longbow (53.5#) that is pretty snappy and crisp shooting.
