Re: Suggestions for a take-down recurve bow required.
Now why do I get the impression that you only posted those links so that you could use that pun?You're crafty enough
I am not hell bent on a recurve. It's just that most of the take-down bows I have come across on the net have been recurves. If I can get the sort of bow I had as a kid, I wouldn't even be interested in a take-down or imported bow.BTW, Why recurve, why not long bow. I like the simplicity of the long bow.

I have a copy of the first Robin Hood made I think in 1918, apart from a collection of over 400 oldies.. Mostly black and white, but amazing stuff

Yes, please do keep a look out for a good bow. As a kid my prized possesions were my air-rifle, the bow and three arrows, my bicycle and my ink stained Indian army knapsack that did duty as my school bag.
