I want this Hummingbird bow back- Help please
« on: January 25, 2012, 05:13:00 PM »
This is a post I made after I got the bow.

I had another one like it made, sold this one and have regretted it ever since. It's 62" 53@29, no name on bow. Sold it to Brittman in NC but he can't remember who he sold it to.

Mods, if you want to move this to the classifieds that's fine.

Any help would be appreciated.

Holy cow !!!!


     

     

Oh yeah, it shoots too.
     

I see a Hummingbird Longbow on my rack before too long.

Gorgeous, what are the specs?  Length, draw weight?
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

I have had several of Ben's bows. I prefer Ben's longbows over the recurves. Ben makes one of the smoothest drawing bows out there.

That one is a looker, very nice!

It is 62" long and 53 @ 29.

Smooth, quiet and fast. Will play with arrows tomorrow to find out the match.

It's pretty but I really want to get it bloody soon.

Glad you got what you want, Ben makes some of the top longbows in the business. I have 3 longbows of his now, Roy
Maybe it is time to shoot what I have on the rack
