I have strung the bow, and it looks completely center strung--no different than my YMG bow.

I believe this is the carbon-bellied bow, though I would ask other members to look at the photos and verify. To be honest, I was so excited to buy an SMG bow in such good condition that carbon vs. artificial horn didn't make a difference to me. It's not the water buffalo horn bow, though.

It it helps, I would estimate the draw weight at 30" to be around 55-56#; at 31" to be 60# as is written on the bow.  Absolutely not 60# at 29" - that's too much!

Yes,

Am trying to figure out how to post large pictures... Stay tuned. Should be up this afternoon...!

I am located in the US and would certainly ship to Europe. In terms of the type of SMG bow/string offset, I will check and should be able to get back to you by this weekend. Looking forward!

Still waiting for this tongue

Sorry--no, I didn't do a formal measurement...just reading off of numbers on bow--

Hi, David, thanks for your interest! Would you happen to know how to post pictures on this forum? Otherwise I would have to email you them separately. In which case, could you send me your email address through PM? Thanks much, Michael

Okay - hope you enjoy it!

My last message got cut off. I had written: 60# AT 31" is around 48-50# at 28" draw length... just in case anyone missed the draw length I posted! Bow still available...

Looking forward,

Michael

Hi! Will send photos and reply!

Also just a friendly reminder that the draw weight listed is at 31

This a fantastic Hwarang bow -- please let me know if you'd like pix.

Dear friends,

Unfortunately, I have to let go of a wonderful, just about brand new bow I purchased from another forumite a year ago. I have never used it, as after I purchased it, I suffered a relapse of a bad elbow injury that basically prevented me from picking up a cup of coffee without experiencing pain; forget about drawing a 60# bow! Went through physical therapy all fall, but now have to build back up with  my wife's 40 pounder.

So this is an SMG bow; bought by the fellow forumite in January of 2014; sold a month after to me. As I wrote, I never used it. It is in absolutely new condition. The owner put a beaver tail handle and strike plates on the bow. As he wrote, they look great and the handle provides a sure grip. It is easily removed if you want.

The bow originally posted for $265, plus shipping and PayPal fees of 3%. I would offer it for $250 plus shipping and PayPal fees.

Let me know-- This is a fantastic price for a pristine SMG!

(side note: looks like I'm not the only one who has to sell a bow bc of an injury. For everyone else: hope you all treat archery as a physical activity like any other one --running, weight lifting! -- and warm up your wrists, arms, and back before you shoot a two hundred arrows at the range...)

Hi, Everyone,

I recently purchased an excellent SMG Song Mu Gong bow from a fellow forumite and am very excited to try it. Issue is, the bow string may have gotten misplaced when I was transporting the bow. In any case, even when and if I find the original string, I would need a backup.

- Does anyone know how one would figure out the proper string length for a bow if the original isn't around? 

- Also, where would one find a bow string suitable for the SMG bow in the US?

Thanks for any and all help!
