Old Black Widow --estimate?
« on: September 18, 2008, 09:51:00 AM »
Hello all, a fella I deal with in our shop came in with an old black widow; when it was just the wilson brothers.
Any who he was curious if it was worth anything? So I told him I would post some pics on here and see if I could find any info for him.

Heres are the specs:
60 inches
45@28 3/4

Here are some pics:

Bow
 

Riser
 

Tips
 

Specs
 

Serial Number
 

Any info would be much appreciated

Thank you

Worth approximately $280 to $320.

If he posted the same question on the Widow Wall I'm sure he would get multiple offers.

Not sure about the $280-$320 price.  Some guys might pay that for it but ya gotta find them.  

I'd give him $200 for it in a heartbeat.  The 45# draw weight is borderline "deer hunting weight" by most peoples thinking but it would be perfect for my daughter in a year or so.  If it was 50 pounds or higher, you could almost double the price.

Just my opinion.

I've come to believe that the keys to shooting well for me are good form, trusting the bow to do all the work, and having the confidence in the bow and myself to remain motionless and relaxed at release until the arrow hits the mark.
