$300? Build your own. Cost? about $200 including your form and heat box. $275 if you don't have any tools. Dick

If you want new, there're lots of bows listed here, maybe it'll help. (I've heard good about the Bear Montana longbow, & it's well under the $300 mark)...best luck & let us know what you come up with!

If a LB is what you really want.(The change over is harder than with a recurve) Try Martin. Their stick is fairly good to start with.

It's not that my longbows don't shoot great, it's just that I can't shoot them! Dick

Radco bow by John McCollough under $275 and a real good shooter. He makes the Shrew bows for Ron LaClair

Hey Carl, have you ever made, or would you even consider making a longbow w/a centershot (shelf cut 3/16&quot; past center) riser? E-mail me please? [email protected] Thanks!
