Bought these 4 for $92.77 a piece, or $371.08 for the lot !
You might find a custom made bow for double that.
I hate to buy cheap imported stuff over American made, but that kind of money, basically 1/8 the cost…….
Are you getting a better price for buying several at the same time?.......or can you get that price on just one bow? If so, I paid to much for my nephew's bow.

I bought one of those bows just because. Less than $100 shipped to me. I can’t buy materials to build my own for anywhere near that! Shot good but passed it on to a newcomer to this trad stuff. I like hunting with bows I made even though I got more in most of them.

On a draw hunt at Kenlake State Park when I walked up on this.

I hear ya Carp. I can see the pleasure in taking your own creation to the woods with you. I haven't drummed up the courage to try that yet. Jordan brought one that he created to the last shoot. He did a nice job on his too. I admire the skills you guys have. I'm afraid I'm limited in that department.

Man! Cardinals are singing this super warm morning and it feels like turkey season is about to open out there!

Have you ever shot at or killed one with a traditional bow? I've tried to draw on them with a compound to no avail but I've never tried it with a recurve.

..........I'll bet the 'Ol Carpmeister has!

I hope you are talking about turkeys, and not cardinals ! 😁
Absolutely! lol! The Carpster wouldn't shoot a Cardinal! That's not to imply he couldn't hit a target that small.......just say'n........

I have only hunted Turkey a few times, Mark always tries to get me started, but just not as appealing to me. Maybe this year.
I have only hunted them with a stickbow and my two attempts were my normal off the mark shots. Mark has however connected on one during a deer hunt...
