Shakeseare Wonderbow pics
« on: February 13, 2010, 07:08:00 PM »
Just found a woderbow in a old truck at the farm.  The truck has trees growing out of it so Im sure the bows been in there for a while.  Other then being dirty it seems pretty solid.  
  Model  x16  66"  H-3074-B   40#   Any info would be great

The Shakespeare line is often ignored by many, but those who have owned or shot them have good feelings about them.  

I have a Wonderbow from the early 70's and really like its smoothness and good manners.  

Even though often plain in appearance compared to some of the early fancier bows, they are solid shooters and can often be found at good prices.

I have a '58 or '59 Wonderbow and it is a nice shooting bow.

Well i found out a little about it.  It was made in 63'   Put it on a tiller tree to pull it back the first few times and all was good.  Shot it 30 times all went very well.  Its crazy this bow has been in a truck, in the woods for at least 20-30 years and still shoots fine.
