My First longbow
« on: April 26, 2013, 03:07:00 PM »
I just picked up my very first longbow. I bought a used liberty contender off of bentpole, I first want to say thank you Tom, awesome doing business with you. And second, thanks to this site for allowing average guys like me to get into an excellent bow. I really appreciate it, I cant wait to get home and try her out, I feel like a kid again.

"Quiet, quick?"
Yes! Although I am very new to trad gear, This bow is both very quiet and nice speed. I literally brought it home that first night and was grouping arrows inside a pie plate diameter. I love that bow!
