This page is established to provide a place for list members to show items they have for sale or trade. Items must be traditional archery related. This web site is not "member access" in terms of posting changes, so listings must be sent to the web manager at:
LIstings should include the basic information on the bow, i.e. bow length, weight at specified draw, any history as you know it, constructions details (riser and lam woods). Good photos are an obvious asset. Be sure to include solid contact info... your personal email address or phone number. Include several good photos. Pictures of the bow drawn are not as important as pictures of the riser and the markings on it, as these can reveal the age of the bow, its model and serial number and, in the case of older Hills, who built it. Send your information and pictures to me at the address above. I'll reprocess the pictures if the are too large, so don't worry too much about that. Obviiously, if you can process them yourself, that save me work. I use jpeg format and usually crop and size to 450 pixels.
We don't always have active listings, but if not, I will leave a sold listing up so that you can see the format
Note: Web Master is merely a conduit for these ads and makes no guarantees as to accuracy of descriptions, etc. Any problems between buyers and sellers must be resolved between them.

"Errol Flynn Quiver"
For Sale by Mike
We have had a spate of interest in the quiver that Errol Flynn wore in "The Adventures of Robin Hood". Mike built one and has it for sale:
After watching the 1938 Robin Hood movie I was inspired
to make a Quiver that Robin Hood wore in the movie....
Of course I added a bit of my own to it....The Black Trim and the Howard Hill
Longbowmen Patch....The Quiver is 22" Deep and 7" wide at the top
and 2" thick....I used almost 400 laceing holes and 24' of lacing. This
Quiver is for SALE $175.00

Bows Up for Sale or Trade by Dick Wightman
Contact: rwightman@mindspring.com
I've really been weeding again. A couple of bows are individually listed below, but I've actually got a dozen up for sale or trade. I can provide picture sets for any of them if you are interested. I'm primarily interested in selling them, but but I would consider trades involving lighter weight Bear bows, 35 - 40#, or most especially a Hill take down that was no more than 45# at 28". Right now I am without a Hill takedown and would like to pick one up. Anyway, here is a list of what I have:
Bows For Sale or Trade – October 2008
Wing Falcon (recurve) – 62” 45 / 28 $125
Pearson 7330 Signature – (take down recurve) 58” 45X# / 28”
$150
Note: These prices were set based on taking
the bows to shoots to sell on-site. They do not include shipping. Will ship
for $25.
Pictures and/or additional info can be supplied on request.

Wesley Special Take Down For Sale by J.M. Davitt
62" RH 60# @ 27"
Since I bought one of Jose's bows, I've got extras! Post
this to the Bows for Sale page, please.
Pics are attached; here are the details: Howard Hill Wesley Special Take Down
For Sale by Jimmy Dee
62" RH 60# @ 27"
Clear glass back and belly
Craig used two different sleeve sizes for his take-downs. This bow is fitted
with "big D" take down sleeves. The fit is absolutely tight.
The handle wrap has been replaced. A shallow hole on the right side
of the riser (for attaching something) has been filled and sealed.
There are no scratches or gouges on the bow. The finish is lightly worn
on the tips.
The bow comes with a metal carrying tube and limb socks. String, too,
of course.
$550 shipped in the lower 48.
