A traditional 60" one piece recurve bow from Buck Trail that makes an ideal field, barebow or recreational bow.
This very popular recurve bow from Buck Trail is back. It is now constructed walnut and dymondwood wooden laminations and is finished off with maple and black glass limbs for a beautiful and purposeful look.
This field recurve bow can be shot off the shelf with a hair or leather pad or alternatively can be shot with a stick on rest.
Comes with a Flemish Dyneema bowstring and shelf/rest plate please order required bow weight.
Great service in the longbow shop, never rushed or pushed into any particular bow. I chose this bow out of my finally narrowing the choice to two and so glad I chose the Antelope. Very light weight and smooth to shoot. As an added bonus you will find yourself smiling while shooting this bow.
This recurve has a smooth draw. Mine is marked as 55lb draw weight.very enjoyable to shoot and puts them where you are looking at. reasonable price for the quality you get.and not a bad looking bow either.it is also quiet. adding couple of string silencers for that special pro look makes it that much better by removing string vibration.
the only gripe i have with this bow is, I think either the 55lb draw weight is mislabeled and misleading or who ever was testing didn't know what they were doing. it definitely feels more like 45-48 tops. I have a Bear Kodiak 55lb so I know what that feels like at 28inch draw. I also have a 40 pound so I can tell this is just slightly more weight than that. so not sure if the bow i got is like this or they are all overrated. keep that in mind when ordering. unfortunately shipping cost from USA prohibit me from returning it back for exchange with 60lb assuming they are all overrated.
I bought the 40lb bow for my birthday from the really nice and approachable guys from The Longbow Shop.
For it's price it's hard to believe the quality and finish. Its so addictive to shoot. I've adjusted the brace height to 7.5inches added a pair of beaver puffs silencers, a traditional hair rest and silent plate, re served it with BCY Halo with a Red Nock Point Tying Thread. Compared to a traditional flat or long bow the end product from drawing it back to releasing an arrow is with no exaggeration the best feed back I've had from any bow I have used. The sight window is perfect. The bow is feather light with a lovely ergonomic riser which makes it a joy to handle. With my first grouping of 9 arrows at 20 feet using (5/16 P.O.C with 100g History points and Gateway Feathers - Right Wing - 3" Parabolic) it was the size of my fist, and I haven't got shovel hands. With my second grouping I 'Robin Hooded' a pair of arrows. This bow is amazing. I am so accurate with it, it's untrue.
If you're thinking of taking up archery and don't want to break the bank with a flashy all singing and all dancing bow this is the bow and pretty much the only bow for you. It looks lovely and shoots even better.
Thank you to the guys and girls from the Longbow Shop.
Just received the bow (very fast delivery from the longbow shop)
although made in China it is a well made bow and of good quality,the bow is lightweight,and shoots very well,ideal for field archery.
I can not say anything but, how it can be made at the cheap price it sells for.I have a 60lb and it is one of the best I have ever owned.
