Bear Montana Brown Maple

I decided I wanted to give shooting a longbow a try, I decided to buy a Bear Montana but in the Brown Maple version, I love the brown fiberglass limbs. The first thing I did was take the leather grip off and put a rubber shurgrip on the handle. I found a "sweet spot" brace height of 8", and with a bow weight of 45@28 it loves to shoot Easton Legacy 1916 arrows. I am looking forward to spending some time shooting this bow.

Have you tried a lower brace height? That is kinda high for a long bow.It might get quieter at a lower brace.Just my 2cents for what it's worth.

Brown is just a good bow color. It just looks "right".

I'll play with the brace height some, this bow seems pretty quiet right now and I don't have any string silencers on it yet. Buy I'll try lowering it and see how it behaves.

Thanks Kenny! I didn't know how I would like the solid white tips...but it doesn't look too bad.
And for brace height...mine shoots best at 7 3/8".

Looks like they fixed one of the so called problems with the older models when people were re shaping the big limb tips......nice!

That's a fine looking bow! I haven't seen one of these with the brown glass yet either, but I really like it.
Congratulations, Chase
