I've owned and still own a number or Widows (among a number of other brands) for years and it is my overall favorite make of bow. The forward-set handle and riser shape/mass are rather unique and promote consistent hand placement, a smooth draw (same draw length with comparatively shorter limbs than other makes) and excellent stability (something that may escape lightweight/low mass bows). The design also provides for a very tough and durable bow...as evidenced by the 'bent limb' demonstration on their company video provided with all new bows. If all you do is shoot targets in the back yard and value 'pretty' more than practical then this may be a minor concern to you. But if you treat your bows like hunting bows its not so minor.
BW has been selling fine bows and providing topnotch customer service since 1957...which says something about their shootability and consistent customer satisfaction.
Price and construction materials are often favorite targets of BW nay-sayers, but unless one has actual field experience with Widows AND with other brands, enough to make a logical comparison, then that nay-say perspective is a hollow claim of warm air. In terms of the entire package of price, shootability, history, durability, looks, re-sale value and customer satisfaction during and after the purchase, this is a very hard bow to beat.
Sound like a BW commercial? Sorry, just opinion based on past personal experience. But don't take my word, try one for yourself.
