Black Widow LAG- anybody still shoot one?
« on: December 11, 2013, 09:28:00 AM »
I just picked up a LAG widow 64" 46#@28" T/D. Seems to be a real nice shooter and performs well. Anyone out there still shoot one or have any experience with one? Mine has the Connection Hinge. Might be a great bow for an Adirondack back country hunt or a kayak float trip.

I had one that was 64" and 60# and really liked it. Its one of the two bows I've sold over the years I should have kept.

I really liked the palm swell in the grip on mine.

Widow's replacement of the LAG with the PL was widely praised, but I'm a fan of the LAG.  It had a great grip, very quiet, and I was consistently accurate with it.  Finding one with a bit lighter weight is on my wish list.

Being a T/D and 46# is why I grabbed it.

I really liked the LAG but when I finally came around to ordering a new BW longbow they stopped making it. Soooo... I just ordered the new PL with the old LAG grip.... Love love love this bow!

I have a 62" 62# @ 29" LAO-Autumn Oak on both sides with brown glass in the handle. I can shoot this bow as well as any of my other bows. I still really like the way they look.
