Bought a Bama Bow!
« on: March 01, 2011, 10:13:00 AM »
Picked this bow up used last week and it showed up yesterday, sure is a sweet looking bow and it shoots great. I'm very impressed. Specs are 65" AMO, 53@28, walnut under black glass for limbs, bocote for riser with maple accent strip, black phenolic and zebrawood tips and zebrawood riser overlay. I've never shot a longbow before, it's a little different than my 39 year old Howatt Hunter, but it sure is fun!

Nate's bows shoot every bit as good as they look and they look great!

Congratulations!

God bless,Mudd

2 good things. a. Bamabows are one of the newest nicest LB's made & b. Anyone still using a 39 Y/O Howatt Hunter deserves the best. Not a knock on Howatts at all. Just real proud you saw it through 39 years with more to come. Well done.

Congrats on the Bama. Sweeeet bows! I just recently got one myself and am extremely happy.

I think I might know where you got your bow from (alice maybe) and if I'm right you got one heck of a deal...but then I could be wrong...

Congratulations again!

Well Done! You're gonna have a lot of fun with the Bama. I have a 2pc hunter model and love it.

I bought a Bama hunter long bow and I love it.  Nate came out with the Expedition and I couldn't stand it I ordered one and went all the way with the Royal.  I am sure you will be hooked now. Nate is a great guy to deal with too.

I just recently shot a bama bow and was very impressed. They look great and shoot really nice. I was amazed at how quiet it was. Congratulations, you got yourself a really nice bow.
