Stolen bow
« on: September 01, 2010, 10:51:00 PM »
Would like to ask everyone to please be on the lookout for a Hummingbird  take down Recurve. It is a Kingfisher model, red elm limbs, 46# @ 28". Has custom made for Travis Duit on it and Rodeo Man in parenthesis underneath the name. It had a thunderhorn bow quiver on it and also stolen was a custom made Kangaroo backquiver. These items were taken on Monday the 30th of August 2010 from my brother's house in southwest missouri. Any help would be appreciated if anyone runs across this bow somewhere. Thanks, Chad

There is BW bow for sale in Missouri on the e-Bay web site.

Search 'Black Widow recurve bows'.

Good luck.

This sucks.

Details are important in times like this so you may want to include where you were when it came up missing. Southwest Missouri is a fairly broad area. It may be helpful to narrow things down. The bow may be hanging in a pawn shop around the area where it disappeared. Maybe someone on here lives in that area or knows someone from that area. You don’t need to provide the exact address, but a town, what part of that town and street or intersection would really narrow things down and may prove to be helpful.

My guess is the person who latched on to it, did it for short term gains and got rid of it as fast as they could.

Hope you find you equipment. Someone took my popup blind last year on some private land I hunt and that was just a blind cant imagine what you feel like.

I hate a thief...!

Check Eb*y and Craigslist.. Don't forget any pawn shops in your area...

Good luck and I hope you get it back.

Check local arhery shops. Sometimes they will sell equipment on consignment.  Often they do not have it on the shelf it is of traditional nature.

Call around and ask.

Good luck.
Relax,

I had 4 bows stolen from me this Spring. I had them hanging on a rack in the Garage. Stupid me, left the door open one night by mistake and they were gone the next morning.
I filed a Police Report not expecting anything good to happen.
I got a call the next day that they'd found the guy who stole them and he was in jail!
Long story short- file a report! You never know how it will turn out.
Sorry for your Brother's loss.

Hopefully that wasn't your only bow being hunting season is just around the corner. If you need a loaner let me know.

Thank you all for your response, the bow was taken from a house just south of Ash Grove Missouri, which is about 15 west of springfield. We have contacted some of the pawn shops with no luck so far, we're not giving up yet though! Thanks again, Chad
