That One Bow

[BWallace10327]

I had that one bow...a White Wolf Beowolf t/d.  It was my first custom and brand new bow.  It was a 66" 47#@28" recurve.  It was kind of big, and kind of slow but it shot absolutely lights out for me, smooth and accurate.  I had it for  6 years and a string break fatally cracked the riser.  The search has been on for nearly 1 year, but I haven't given up; I've shot some awefully nice bows in the process.

I foolishly sold my 'one bow'.  Back in 2009 I had purchased a Bob Lee Hunter from a forum member.  I was newly married, didnt have much $, and just into trad hunting.  I was offered the bow and told to pay later.  I couldn't do that, so I sold a few things and scraped together the money.

I never did harvest with it, but had some really good hunts in the time I owned it.

I had it for about 3 years, then sold it when I got into a Hoyt Buffalo.  I sure wish I still had that Bob Lee.

A Black Widow MA II 60", 60# @ 28" new Christmas present from my wife Christmas 1991. There's a second one too, a Jack Howard Gamemaster bought new from Jack in 1967.

I should add that I have 2 Black Widow PCH bows that are 58" and 60" and 51# and 49#@28".  I draw 29+" now. For a while, I was dead set on longbows, but every time I shoot either of these bows I am eating my words.  This may be the "one" bows I've been after.  Only time will tell.
