Bill Price Bows
« on: July 31, 2007, 11:23:00 PM »
Hello All,
Out of curiosity, I was wondering anybody out there shooting Bill Price bows from Ca. Bill is gone now, and I offered mine up for trade the other day and started regretting it right away. Trade didnt happen, just got me thinking.

lb55,  I have a couple of his bows.  One he made for me for a caribou hunt.  He was a good friend and hunting partner on that hunt.  He used to tell us,  life time guarrantee on his bows!  I always said,  who's life! lol   He was a great guy!

Hello Chuck,
I'm starting to think he supplied many "caribou" hunt bows ! Thanks for the reply and all your work as our Field Rep.

I have one of his bows....
And I know people who have no's of his bows....
    He was a deer friend of mine, we usualy set up our boots next to each other at shoots....
   I play his CD's at times while I work in my shop....
   As Mr Chuck mentioned he was a great story teller and he liked to sing for the people who gatherd around his booth at night....
   I shot one of my best rounds at a shoot with his Longbow, I shot 654.
   Around here in CA any shoot ya go to, alomost every group of shooters someone will have a Bill Price bow if not all in the group....
   Bill is well loved around here and Missed....
I'd keep his bow if I was you....

I had the pleasure of hunting caribou with Bill on the northern tip of Quebec. It was a non-migrating herd. We were in a spike camp. Bill shot a heavy horned bull with one of his longbows while we were there. He was a really neat guy and fun except for his snoring!! LOL

Sounds like Bill was fun to hang with.  Anyone have a photo of his bows?  I remember seeing one a few years back and liked the design (forward grip, as I recall), but haven't seen any since.
