Browning Challenge Recurve

[ariser]

Hello all, looking for information on this recurve. I know its a target bow, 68" , #44. Looks like it has non factory holes drilled for a quiver. Like to know what it is worth. Also is it a good target bow?

ariser - Depending on condition, I've seen nice ones go for anywhere from $250 to $350.  I think it depends on market and demand at any given time.  To answer your second question - the Browning Challenge is better than a "good" target bow.  Is there any stress in the limbs?  Any chance you can post a pic?

ariser,  Browning didn't make bows that didn't shoot well.        Of course it's up to the shooter as to how well.  The Challenge was their top of the line, equal to the Bear Tamerlane, Hoyt Pro Medalist, etc.  It was/is a first line shooter.

It's worth what someone pays for it, since the target bows other than Bear haven't had a lot of takers as far as collecting goes.  That's a pretty fair weight for the target bows and that's a tad unusual.  Just throwing a price range out there, I would suggest maybe $150.00 to $250.00, depending on condition.

It will drive nails as far as accuracy goes.

Hello Hot Hap, Ron Bushong and George D. Stout. I am now the proud owner of this bow. It is in very good overall condition. Coming with original browning soft case, and Browning factory sights still in their box. A couple of little issues The real Bow Doc is going to advise me on. No limb twist or stress lines or anything of any issue. I will add pictures soon. Thanks for your interest.
