Truck Bow?
« on: February 09, 2016, 05:04:00 PM »
Do bows exist that can live under the backseat of my truck in 110 degree heat without delaminating?
Doesn't have to be a great performer, just shoot arrows down range.

Kept in a cloth case and out of direct sunlight (which it would be under the back seat) and just about any bow will work.

I was told by a bowyer friend to let the bow cool down before stringing it when it has been in a super-heated vehicle.

You could look for an old Bear 76er. They had all fiberglass limbs and take down into a small package.

Cool, thanks for the input. I like the 76er.

My first curve was a 76er I bought new. Yall remember those days when a kid rode a bike pulling a lawnmower and got 7 bucks a yard? That's when I got my trad start. Mine was a green riser with brown limbs @ 45#. Tough bow I suppose I could have used it to paddle my canoe and beat briars.

Yepper on the 76'ers, that is my truck bow. Magnesium riser and glass limbs it's almost bullet proof
For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.
