Recurve Bows

Traditional archery, once upon a time, was just called archery. Through years of innovation and development, bow technology has evolved, not just into a higher form, but into a whole new species. That being said, over the last few years many shooters have found themselves craving the challenge of the stick and the string. As such, traditional shooting has grown exponentially over the last decade and continues to become more popular year after year.
When purchasing a new bow, find out if it comes with a bow stringer. If it doesn't, make sure you get one. Always use a commercial bow stringer when stringing and unstringing any bow. If you do, you'll avoid potential physical danger to yourself and your bow. Your grandfather may have used the "step-through" method, but that is totally unsafe for you and the bow, and should NOT be done, even in a pinch. Using a stringer is not really an option; it's simply something you must do! We can't stress that enough.

Alex asked:
well i found a Shakespeare X18 sierra for $50 i grabbed it because i've been looking for an affordable recurve for years, but when i got home i did some research and learned it's from the early 70's. There doesn't appear to be any cracks or chips it needs new felt on the arrow rest and a new string it's a 50 pound bow btw for anyone guessing the string price.
