Trade Treadway Black Forest longbow for BBO
« on: October 12, 2011, 06:42:05 pm »
Its time for my son to move up in weight so we are offering this beautiful RH Black Forest by Treadway. The bow is marked 42# but the previous owner had 5# removed from it. The bow has black and white ebony riser and boo limbs. Typical Treadway bow. Beautiful, fast and quiet. We are looking to trade it for a nice bamboo backed osage longbow or similar 60" or so and between 41-45#.

Is it a clear FG bow?

Adam, Mike makes glass over wood bows. And they are pretty, fast  and quiet.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Mike shot an elk(his first) with a 41#@28" Black Forest a few years ago. The arrow shot through the elk and sunk in the ground.

How do you reduce draw weight with a FG bow? Reduce limb width???

adb, yes but you are limited to how much.
