Unlike the one piece longbow, the DAKOTA CUSTOM PRO HUNTER LONGBOW is a three piece take-down model. This innovatively designed, custom longbow was engineered, by Rick Welch, to accomodate those who have a desire to shoot a longbow, but haven't been satisfied with the performance of a one piece longbow. This innovatively designed longbow also eliminates the concern of dealing with substantial hand shock, as a result of inadequate riser mass weight, which inadequately facilitates bow steadiness at full draw. The innovative design of the DAKOTA CUSTOM PRO HUNTER LONGBOW puts just the right amount of riser mass weight in your hand, for rock solid steadiness at full draw. With the DAKOTA CUSTOM PRO HUNTER LONGBOW, you will benefit from the optimally engineered integration of smooth draw, and virtually no hand shock. The model specific addition of the carbon core to the limbs, greatly enhances arrow speed.
