Topic: WTB 80#-90# Hwarang bow or Manchu Bow

First off I'm a new member and have been looking into Korean/Eastern archery for a bit, but really haven't taken the time to really learning. Long story short, I like shooting really heavy bows (I shoot warbows). I'm mainly interested in a strong Hwarang bow (from what I've read it seems to have divine powers), but if someone has a strong Manchurian bow, I'd be willing to take it off your hands. I live in the U.S.

I'm not planning on dedicating myself to learning the traditional shooting method as I can't figure it out with my lack of depth perception and other issues that I have. So while it might be blasphemy, I'd shoot it mediterranean with a thumbdraw. All kidding aside, I'd probably still give it a go (always thought it would work well for moving targets, pheasants, squirrels, rabbits, etc.)

I figure I'd apologize in advance if I broke some rules of early member postings or something along those lines.

Thumbs up
