Author Topic: Recommendations for pop up blind bow? (Read 370 times)

threeunder · « **on:** October 07, 2011, 11:18:00 PM »

I'm looking for a longbow that is short enough to allow use out of a pop up blind. Any recommendations?
I'm relatively new (4 years) to the longbow. The only two I have both measure at 64" so looking for something considerably shorter, but is fairly easy for a "newb" to shoot.

Thanks
Ken

I had a Kohannah Fury that was 60" that was a smooth shooter for a relatively short longbow...
I'm sure others will chime in with some even shorter that are smooth as well.

I just traded for a 56" Hill Country T/D LB....perfect for a blind bow and very fast.

I am very pleased with my 60 inch Cari-bow Slynx

You might take a look at Lost Creek . The life ender model is sweet.

How big is the pop up?
Like Sal said, a Shrew will shoot out of most any blind. I shoot my Classic Hunter out of one of those little doghouse blinds.

I needed a new blind this year and bought an amerstep harvester. No need for a shorter bow. It is 6'7" at the center. I shoot a 58"recurve and can shoot standing. I think it cost $169. just a thought however it is always nice to get a new bow.

fwiw, i found out the hard way that a 62" longbow was too long for a db blind ....

Lee Hoot's makes both a short longbow and recurve that are perfect for a groundblind!

Shrew Classic Hunters are among the best for a light, handy, short blind bow, but a relatively short Morrison, Hoots, Big Jim Thunderchild, or various other similar bows would work very well too.

Get a Shrew.....or just get a "Big Mike" blind and shoot the bow you have.......

Personally Id just get both the Shrew and the new blind.

My 58" and 60" Sarrels Blackhills II longbows work great in my Double Bull Darkhorse Trad model blind..

Just a quick chime as it's been partially mentioned already. Barronett now makes 2 blinds w/80" height and one with 84". Might be a more viable option, but new bows are hard to beat.
