Bow trade

#1 Post by EWill »

I recently traded a Brackenbury difter recurve, 66" 60@28, that I wasn't shooting, for an Elburg, old tradition, 68" 62@28. I like the Elburg, it is selfbow quiet. The Elburg matches good with my Northern Mist whisper which is 68" 59@28. At my 27" draw they are about 59 and 56 lbs. respectively. My arrows fly good from both.
Now I just have to decide which one I shoot the best. That will be fun.

Nothing clears a troubled mind like shooting a bow.

Any trade in which you are happy and you go from having a bow that is a dust collector, to a shooter, is a good trade!
