Martin Recurve Question
A long time ago I purchased what a Martin Hatfield take down recurve bow, left handed, 70 pound pull. I havent shot a bow in ages and wish to put this up for sale on Ebay. How can I identify exactly what I have? Approximate worth? The bow is new and has never been put together.


My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

All Bows depreciate very quickly. Even top end bows seldom sell for 1/2 of cost new.
Martins are a good production bow...but, nothing special in terms of collectibles. You might find a lefty looing for a heavier bow. I think us leftys are only about 18% of the archers out there.

Start it at $50 + shipping.....If you get more be happy.

You might want to try putting it in the free classifieds here or on one of the traditional bowhunting sights. tradgang.com or stickbow.com

I think I will try ebay. They dont even make this bow any more in left handed 70 pound pull. Similar ones are selling for close to 500
