Great little hunting bows for stands and blinds. They still work just fine. This one is a Head Ski era and my main hunting bow. Shot this little guy this morning.

Yes I have one. It is a very nice bow but it is just too short for my draw length. I would like to try the longer one sometime. >>>----> ken

I took my first archery buck with a 52" Wing Thunderbird in 1972 in my eighth year of bowhunting. Pass through shot at about 25 yards more or less. Bow was 49# at 28" and a Head Ski model. Awesome bows.

Mine’s a ‘67 and we’re still just getting to know each other, but so far, so good! I shot this group last night about 45 minutes after sunset… Maybe 40? Anyway, I could just make out the white spot in the middle of the target and it looks like the bow did the rest all by herself!

I’ll tell ya....
That massive phenolic riser has me re-thinking what I want in my next bow....
I have a Bighorn TD with a heavy riser that shoots like a dream but would get pretty heavy after 9 or 12 hours on my feet between 9,000 and 12,000 feet...
And you can call it Blind Luck if you want (rightly so, given that I could barely make out the target through the Gloom), but putting 4 shots into a strip less than an inch wide at 30 yards gets my attention.
I’m going to have to shoot this bow a whole lot more and see what I can do with it...

GF, looks like you have perfect line with that old T-Bird. I would rather have consistent line if given a choice as elevation is easier for me to fix. At 52" this is not really a heavy mass bow but but definitely more than average. Besides, the grip on this old gal fits me perfect. Not a better recurve grip out there for me. The weight on this one is 46#, I also have a a 45 pounder. Bob Lee certainly designed some great bows in his day. I'd love to get a 62" phenolic T-brid in the 45 - 50 pound range. That would be for the range, I'll stick to the 52" for hunting.

Yep! If it turns out I can do that consistently, Bare-shafting with it should go pretty quick!
