You just may fall in love with this long, lean and lovely lady with just enough curves to turn on any red-blooded bowhunter. Even though she appears very slim and delicate, she packs a powerful punch. In fact, she zings a heavy arrow as fast as our recurves. The locator grip provides positive and consistent hand placement, yet has a traditional appearance. Most Black Widow recurve shooters can pick up this longbow, grip it by the throat just like they do their recurve and immediately hit where they look without having to make adjustments. In fact, the PSR recurve has exactly the same grip and riser as this longbow. This makes it unbelievably easy to switch back and forth between these two bows. You have to shoot this bow to believe it! (See our TEST DRIVE program on page two.) Available in a one-piece or take-down version.
• LIMB LENGTHS: 60", 62", 64" and 66". Reflex design. Vertically stacked, tapered laminations reinforced with a woven glass center core. Faced and backed with transparent Fiberglass with a veneer lamination and carbon under the back glass.
• RISER: Deflex design. Reinforced with pre-stressed, multiple layers of fiberglass on the back side of trim stripe that extend into the fadeouts. Tapered 2 3/4 inch sight window cut to center. Radiused shelf. Black Widow medallion inlay. Shur-Grip rubber handle wrap that can easily be rolled off or on, as preferred. Brass inserts for side-mount quivers or sight (Kwikee Kwiver) available at no additional charge (please specify).
• BRACE HEIGHT: 7 to 7 3/4 inches (from string to throat of grip).
• MASS WEIGHT: 1 3/4 pounds for 64" bow.
• FINISH: Sealed and protected in nonreflective “Frost” (matte) clear marine epoxy. All inserts are solid brass.
PL II Graybark ONE-PIECE or TAKE-DOWN LONGBOW: The natural camouflage of the “Graybark” birch laminations blends beautifully with the gray of tree bark, trunks and limbs.
PL III Autumn Oak ONE-PIECE or TAKE-DOWN LONGBOW: The “Autumn Oak” birch laminations have the same hue as the leaves of a frosted oak during the fall whitetail hunting season.
PL IV Greenleaf ONE-PIECE or TAKE-DOWN LONGBOW: The “Greenleaf” birch laminations will blend in with about any hunting situation. Whether out west, your favorite tree stand or chasing those spring turkeys! (See photo on page 30.)
PL V Ironwood ONE-PIECE or TAKE-DOWN LONGBOW: The “Ironwood” bow has vertically stacked, bamboo laminations in the limbs to further enhance the feel and performance. We stain the bamboo laminations to compliment the rich, brown color of the exotic wood in the riser.
PL X Exotic ONE-PIECE or TAKE-DOWN LONGBOW: X stands for “Exotic!” We can build your X bow with one of several exotic woods of your choice (see page 1). All of the Exotic models (with the exception of Osage and Yew) will have vertically stacked, bamboo laminations in the limbs to further enhance the feel and performance. This may require some planning and discussion by phone, please call us for details.
PL C Carbon ONE-PIECE or TAKE-DOWN RECURVE: Black Widow Custom Bows is now offering Carbon in our limbs! The Cross Woven Carbon design will add increased torsional stability, making limb twist virtually impossible. The Carbon also helps the limbs recover quicker which makes them considerably quieter (not to mention 3-5 feet per second faster, depending upon the weight and draw length). If you are looking for the best that modern material has to offer, combined with the Black Widow design and craftsmanship you’ve grown to love, then give the Carbon Bows some consideration. You won’t be disappointed.

FIVE YEAR PRO-RATED LIMITED WARRANTY:
Black Widow has always strived to bring you the best quality bows that you can find. In addition to that, we have taken pride in the appearance of our bows by adding many exotic woods for you to choose from. Through the years we have tried to pick out the best looking woods to make your dream bow a reality. We have also tried to use the clearest fiberglass we can find to bring out the beauty of the wood. The producers of the fiberglass used in building our bows cannot guarantee us clear, “window pane” glass. We, like the rest of the bowyers in the industry, have struggled for years with finding clear fiberglass. As a result of this we can no longer warranty bows that have small streaks in the glass. These streaks are cosmetic only and do not affect the integrity of the bow. As always, we will pick the clearest glass we can find to build our bows. Please keep in mind that the darker the limb wood, the more apt to see these slight imperfections in the fiberglass.
Should damage or failure occur to a Black Widow bow within a period of one year from the date of shipment due to inferior materials or workmanship we will make free repair, or replacement if repair is not possible. After the one year period, repair will be made at a reasonable charge. If, at the discretion of Black Widow Custom Bows repair is not possible, replacement will be made on the basis of 1/48th of the current retail price per month from the first anniversary of the date of shipment. For example, if the current price of a set of bow limbs at the time of replacement is $900, the per month replacement charge from the first anniversary date of shipment would be $18.75 per month. If this were to happen after 24 months from the date of shipment (12 months from first anniversary date) the replacement cost would be $225 ($18.75 x 12 months). Replacement will be made with a bow of the same model, or as near as possible if models have changed.
THIS WARRANTY APPLIES TO THE ORIGINAL OWNER ONLY.
The above provisions will apply unless the bow shows evidence of misuse, abuse, alteration, improper handling, or damage as a result of shooting arrows weighing less than 8 grains per pound of draw weight (we recommend 9 to 11 or more; especially with long draw lengths of 29 inches or more, which can significantly increase the possibility of limb tip damage when using a high performance bowstring) or during the stringing or unstringing process.
No adjustment can be made until the bow is returned to Black Widow Custom Bows for inspection. If it is necessary to return your bow to the factory for repair be certain to pack it carefully to prevent damage from shipping. To insure that you do not do something that will void your warranty be sure to read and follow the instructions in the Owners Manual before assembling, stringing and shooting your bow
