Looking to buy a traditional bow with a high draw weight. I shoot RH at 29. Thought I would check to see if anyone had one that they wanted to get rid of before I had something built. Thank You for any responses.

I know a guy that has an original Howard Hill longbow in the 80 to 85 pound range @ 28.
He will probably want your first born child with a little boot. Will let you know.

So you must have some strength and power.

Not many people can shoot traditional equipment at that draw weight with any accuracy.

Are you headed to Africa?

No I am not going to Africa, at least not for now. It's just what I prefer to do.

Word to the wise - don't get any tip laminations. I had an 80 pound takedown recurve that threw the moose tips into the neighbor's yard about every 500 shots.

I had a buddy in High school who’s dad was a world class archer with a long bow. He was on impossible shots, Letterman and various other tv shows.

Him and my buddy were making custom bows in Hartselle.

Back in the early 90’s Byron shot in my group in a couple of 3D tournaments. He could shoot a nickel out of the air but missed his fair share of those 3D animals.

I shot with Byron down at lakes archery and had no idea who he was he just ask me to shoot with him. We shot about the same on the 3D range but then he started trick shooting. It was awesome to watch in person and having my own private show.

english bowmen routinely shot 100-125-pound yew longbows, firing very heavy war arrows. by law, they had to shoot often, and had curved spines because of it. they were not big dudes, by our reckoning ...

Normal people buy 45-60lb bows for hunting all game all over the world. Couldn't imagine needing over a 60lb stick bow.pretty sure that's when folks learned to make guns.
