SKB Korean Traditional Recurve Bow - need comments

Post by dgposton » Sun Jul 16, 2006 7:06 pm

I am back from a two or three year hiatus from traditional Asian archery.

I am currently looking for a decent bow for my wife, who probably has a draw length around 25-26". She can't pull much draw weight. I am considering the SKB Korean bow offered here (30 lb @ 30 inches):

Does anyone have experience with these? It is priced around $150.

Thanks,
David

We had a very recent thread on that subject over on the goongdo forum: http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/go ... essage/708

What it boils down to is, the SKB is a good entry-level bow.

I have one. It's a fun bow to shoot. Arrow selection might be critical if you are using fingers.
