Tom the crusader is a great bow. I just shoot a recurve a little more consistant than I do a longbow. Not to mention the cocobola riser and birdseye curly maple veneers on the limbs makes the crusader a absolute beauty to look at.My order is allready in for the widow. PSA III 60" 65@28 even got my nickname from work put on the limb lol custom made for the PRICK A SAUR [8D] Now I need to scrape up the funds to try out some grizzly stiks and find a leather worker to make me a armguard to match. That or learn to tool leather which I am sure it would be easier to pay someone else
