what you getting? covert hunter? you'll need to sell all those for the money like you say. 1200+ pounds! :surprised:
The degree of satisfaction gained from the accomplishment of a goal is directly proportional to the hardships and challenges overcome in order to achieve it.

Hi there,

Might well be interested in the longbow (Black Griffon). If you'd like to send pics to andy@mammal.net.au or 0404 883 706 that would be great. Interested to see whether the handles are straight or pistol. Prefer pistols.

Cheers,

Andy

Wondered when you would have a sniff Andy. I would love a Border too but they are just a bit too heavy for this bloke. Great bows.

Hi guys, yep they are a fine bow for sure. Ive been shooting Borders for near on 30 years now started off with a Border Lightning recurve and progressed through the technology/ design improvements. I still have a few others to keep me happy while i wait for a new Black Douglas super swift 60" 60#, and another griffon as i have found a new spot of enthusiasm to take a buff with the longbow. I am shooting my 60# griffon nicely and would like to have a bit more for the buff- besides i cant wait to surprise Sid as i havent spoken to him for too long and enjoyed the moment of unwrapping a new work of art :biggrin:

Andy i will text you pics shortly and continue to figure out this tablet so i can send any pics any one may want to see out of intrest.

Cheers
Mike

True. Didn't take me long. Always fancied a Border in the collection.

Hi Andy,

I would of loved to buy that bow before you jumped on it...!

It would have been so pleasurable to beat you both left and right handed at the next event...! :lol:

Cheers Guy

So modest mate.

PS. Somehow managed 487 around Wiseman's in miserable rain the other week. Quite pleased with that.
