[Big Ed]

Just trying to get some info on a Pronghorn Longbow. What’s everyone’s thoughts?
Thanks,
Big Ed

Matt Steed got one,and posted it a while back. It sure got me to looking at them.

Had a three piece that got too heavy for me as I got older and my shoulder said "no"... eventually sold it. Great bows!!! Would love another lighter version some day.

All around good bows.  Not the quickest, not the slowest, just good bows and built beautifully.  Easy to shoot.

[SCATTERSHOT]

I have had three, two takedowns and a one piece. They were all beautifully made, sweet shooting works of art, well worth your consideration.

[trad_bowhunter1965]

I have two of them and they are awesome sweet shooters and fast and smooth.

I've had a bunch both 1 pc and 3 pc and still have a few. They compare with the GN Critter Getter...both real work horses without the glitter.  I prefer the 1pc as I now like a bowbolt takedown system compared to a 3 pc...just me.

AWESOME sauce !!! Herb is a great guy and like others have said they are work horses built to last. I received a new three pc from him back in February. All Bacote this is my fourth one. Two 3 PC Longbows / 1 one pc longbow and I sold a Ferret Recurve that I should have kept. Can't go wrong with a pronghorn !

Have two (3 pc), a 62" and 55# and 60" that is 58#. Fast, quiet, accurate, and on of the few that can be used without string silencers. Personally, I like the standard in grey/black limbs. The other is Cocobola with bamboo/Osage limbs. I like the lower rest, similar to a longbow, because it points naturally.

[Car54]

I have a three pc., 64" bow.., quiet, smooth as heck to pull, quick, and use small silencers(that's all you need). My #1 bow.

[matt steed]

Pronghorn longbows are great shooting bows. They are quiet, and very forgiving. I have two 3pc longbows and two 1pc longbows. My son has a 1pc and my wife has a 1pc.

Mr. Herb is absolutely a pleasure to work with and has a ton of knowledge. Give Mr. Herb a call or send him a email. He will go out if his way to help you.

[Big Ed]

Thank you all!

BUY ONE.   I have. A three piece at 62 inches.  It is my go-to bow as it travels so well.  I modified my seabag to add 10 inches.  Put boots in the bottom, PVC tube in the middle, put clothes around the tube..  last minute bow and arrows in tube, pack on top, close, lock and go

The bow itself is just a workhorse-spoils shafts downrange as easily as dropping the string

I've got to shoot a few at rmsg and they were my favorite 3 piece longbows that I have tried so far. Very nice shooters

[matt steed]

This is a solid Hickory Pronghorn. Hickory riser and hickory limbs. 64 inch 52@30.          

The hickory has more figure than I thought it would.

[matt steed]

This is a 64 inch 52@30. Red Elm limbs Shedua riser. Brown glass        


Mr. Herbs favorite limb core is red elm.
They shoot really good. We are lucky to have so many wonderful Bowyers today.

Never shot one but always liked the looks of them, I'll try one sooner or later......like I need another bow.

I am posting this picture for Steve Carpenter from Indiana. This is his three piece Pronghorn  takedown. All Bocote Longbow.

Talking about natural camo; this is it.

[Steve Jr]

Thanks for posting the picture Matt. It's Herb's short handle with his 60" limbs but makes a 58" bow on the short handle. 49# @ 26" it shoots great like all of Herb's Bows. Has to be my favorite bow! I just ordered a one pc to match it. Herb is a very personable Man and easy to work with.   Can't go wrong with a Pronghorn!

[PastorSteveHill]

One of the best 3 pcs. bows made!!!!
