I just received a 25 year old long bow from my cousin and it was only used a couple of times and then it sat in his basement unstrung for the rest of the time i was wondering if was still useable. Thanx

No reason at all why it shouldn't still be shootable. Carefully check the bow over for any apparent damage & if it looks ok, then string it up & go to shooting!

Like Vic said, look it over good. If it's an all wood bow, be extra carefull--might be better to just hang it on the wall if that is the case.
