Won a Longbow
« on: August 18, 2013, 09:18:00 PM »
Went up to the Hawkeye shoot this weekend and decided to enter the raffle. Ended up winning a old Alaska Frontier Archery take down longbow in pretty great shape. From what I found online they are well worth the $10 dollars (They went for upwards of $1250 new) I spent on it and boy oh boy does it shoot good. Not sure if I'm gonna keep it yet or not but it sure is a nice bow!

You won a very nice bow. I saw that bow at Hawkeye as well. It looks to be the same as the blackwolf he came out with after he was part of Alaska Frontier Archery.

Congrats, $10.00 for a bow great deal no matter what make or model.  Enjoy shooting it.
Too many bows to list, and so many more I want to try!  Keep the wind in your face, and your broadheads sharp.

I agree any bow for $10 is a good deal but it sounds like you got a real gem. Hope enjoy it, by the looks of it you can always double your money.   :laughing:

Thanks I couldn't believe it when they said the last digit. But I know how you feel, I was only 2 away from the Bear rug!
