Spotted in a Skegness shop,
No internet link.
Must be one of those old fashioned shops.
Cash register, real customers, etc.

Lovely, that's it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Big Grin
Thanks very much Tigs.

Now back to the original question,
Anyone had any experience with this bow?
Looks like a neat little "parcel shelf" bow to me.
Must have misread the packaging about 28" arrows so they'll cause me a slight tilt.
Close range stuff BUT as I'm getting really good at sneaking up on bunnies, I thought it would make a useful addition to my box of tricks.

Sorry not me I look at that and a version from SMK but it was only 20 lb draw so I didnt look any further. Visually it looks very similar in design and format to SMKs ARC 3103 Little Dyno bow or the ARC 3112 Nova

the blurb says "for ages 9-12!" so it isnt going to be very strong is it?

The bow I have is a take down recurve from Armex. It isn't that one.

Nice little unit fits in a 15 inch by 2 inch by 1 inch box. Sadly no room for arrows but is light and easy to carry. Cost £50
