My newest longbow!!!

[DelSnavely]

I just got this one today. I bought it from the classifieds on another site. It was made for a guy with much bigger hands that me, but it still feels better than my Bear Montana. It's a 66" J.D. Berry Appollo 56#@30" (50#@28" my draw length). I LOVE THIS BOW!!! It shoots much better than my Montana and is much more comfortable.

The target pic is of the first six arrows I threw from this bow. I couldn't believe it. The target was at 20 yards.

Now I REALLY can't wait to get my NEW J.D. Berry Viper! That one will be made for "ME"...lol

I may just send this one to James and have him rework the grip to fit me. It would be nice to have a backup like this one.

Hope you like it, I sure do!

That's a beaut.  I bet it will compete for #1 with the bow you have coming.  A fella could have worse problems.

Very nice looking longbow! Congrats on the acquisition.

Great looking bow.  I've tried the montana as well and just didn't like the big blocky grip.

This is a pic of the first six arrows I shot with it. Didn't adjust anything. The target was at 20 yards.

Outstanding shooting. And the bow ain't bad, either, lol!

I would not rework the handle. It looks in proportion to the bow.

Just a plain beautiful bow,great looking woods!

That is one pretty bow there.

Shooting like that I wouldn't change anything. If it aint broke don't fix it.
Beautiful bow!
