Auction: HHB Longbow |
Lead | |
|
I have this HHB longbow that I recently made, it's fairly heavy draw weight but I wouldn't call it a warbow. The bow is 68" N to N, 1 1/4"
wide and has WB horn nocks. I tillered this bow to 30" where it pulls just under 80#, a good hefty draw weight but I'm sure it can be pulled to
31" for those with a slightly longer draw. I wouldn't recommend it be drawn more than this though. I heat treated the bow and put a few inches of
reflex in and it still holds almost 2". It has a bit of character to it but the wood is very clean. The bow comes with an 18 strand dacron string. I
will start the auction at $125 and end the auction on June 12 at 6 pm est. Buyer pays shipping. If you have any questions just send me a PM. Here's some

Not being critical Marc. I think you build great bows! Good luck with your auction.

I didn't think you were being critical Horatio. Many people that want longbows are looking for a decent draw weight to them, quite often more than this one
actually

I have been waiting for you to put up one like this. I will bid $150 if it will be OK to pay on the 15th (that's if you're using PayPal; if mailed I
will be able to send payment on the 13th).
