New Backup Bow
 

Well my new backup bow came in yesterday evening. It is a Samick Sage Takedown Recurve, 62" AMO and 55# @ 28". I got it to take on hunts with me because it is a takedown and won't take up much room, plus you can't beat the price, Brand New $109 plus shipping. I got it lined out this evening in time to do some shooting. I didn't really expect much out of this bow due to the cheap cost, but let me tell you it shoots great. I was throwing groups from the first arrow that were equal to or better than the groups I shoot with my longbow. It also is faster and harder hitting than my longbow which is also 55# @ 28". I could tell it was hitting harder from how deep it was driving the arrows in my target. So if any of the traditional guys or gals are looking for a good backup bow at a great price I have to recommend this one. I'll let y'all know more after I shoot it some more and it gets broke in good, but right now I'll have to give it two thumbs up.

That is great Derek, there is always someone looking for a good bow that does not cost a lot. Bob

that's is a good price, where can i get one?

Here is the link to where I orded mine. http://www.traditionalarcheryusa.com/samicksagetdbow.aspx

I added a rug and plate to shoot off the shelf, nock and string silencers and it was good to go. The string that came with it isn't the best so I have a new one on order.

Thanks I'll check it out

Nice looking bow for the price. Bob

It's not finely finished like a good custom bow, but for a throw down backup it is great. Also might use it on those rainy nasty days when I hate getting my longbow all wet.

I've been shooting this new bow for two weeks now and have really fell in love with it. It is way, way more bow than the cost suggests and I'd really recommend anyone looking to start shooting traditional or needing a backup bow take a close look at this one.
