    Archery bits

    A few odds & sods as I'm having a tidy up All prices include RMSD, but +4% for Paypal please.

    First up a Fletchmatic release aid. Used but v. good condition, includes alternative trigger attachments. £25;



    Arten Midas Compound sight. With .50 dioptre Arten scope. Used but v. good nick, comes with hard case & instructions. This is a good sight. LEFT HANDED! £80;







    Skorten Pod bowstand. Used once or twice. Small enough to tuck in your quiver, feet & ground spike hide inside when not in use. £19;





    Tollgate bowstand, used. No ground spike (dunno if it ever had one) but doesn't need it. £12;



    Carbofast Carbon Quad longrod. 30" with 2 tuneable weights. I'll chuck a ten quid quick-detatch adapter in with this. Used but good nick. £40;



    Old Arten target sight, ambidextrous, free to a good home - preferably a newbie to the sport of kings



    Open to trades on any/all of it, including the bow
    Cheers, Ian

    is this a really owld beggar then?? , it's fitting really as i collect old airguns , old watches and try to collect old tenners but the wife keeps finding them


    john.

    ps, ian, the longbow that i mentioned in my reply, i was about thirteen when i made it, i bought some tournament arrows for it and shot the first one at our particularly thick garage doors, the arrow snapped in two, the next shot was when my mate was jumping up and down shouting "you can't get me" well, being young (as well as an idiot!) i fired in his general direction (he was about 40/50 yards away), he shouted i can't see it!!, next thing he had a hole in his leg (and his brand new stayprest trousers), jeeez, i felt terrible, probably as bad as when he shot me with a relum tornado a few weeks before

    bloody kids just don't see danger

    Stayprest trousers?! You're showing your age mate It were all Farah slacks & Diadora Bjorn Borg Gold trainers when I worra lad...

    When I was at uni I shot an arrow from a 70# recurve straight through an outside khazi & smashed the bowl in half for a bet - very much a "hold my pint & watch this" moment

    ha ha, i wore either stayprest or levis, crombie and dockers (or if feeling a bit dressy, black leather soled brogues with heel taps so that it sounded like the 8th army was marching over the hill )though i vaguely recall wearing a traveira two-toned suit in a purple colour too

    it 'kin orrible being nearly 50
