Journeyman longbow, thoughts?
« on: September 27, 2019, 03:38:54 PM »
Just made a trade for a 66” 45@28 Journeyman longbow. Anyone have any experience with one of these. I love trying new stuff.....lol :goldtooth:

I nearly ordered one about 6 years ago, but Jared (I think that was his name) stopped building bows at the time. Sure wish I placed an order sooner. They looked like the perfect takedown D/R longbow.

I think I may have mistaken the takedown for a different Journeyman made by North Archery. Is that what you have?

Don’t have it yet,  it I think it’s from the same guy that made the take down.
