    I visit quite a few bowshops etc. All mostly compound shops and I look, hold, even draw and shoot many of the new compounds. Look at the price tag and say, Naw, no reason to spend this money when my Liberty does the job.

    THEN I GO TO THE TRAD SHOP LAST NIGHT AND PICK UP A FEW NEW AND USED LONGBOWS and I WILL BE DAMNED IF I COULD BARELY GET OUT OF THERE WITHOUT BUYING ONE! ONE IN PARTICULAR THAT I HELD AND SHOT LAST NIGHT.. I HAVE A FEELING I WILL BE ADDING THIS BOW TO MY ARSENAL BY THIS WEEKEND! LOL I would of bought it if my wife wouldnt have reminded me we are throwing a big surprise B-day party for my mother tomorrow..

    Its a used FOX archery Longbow.. OH MAN I WANT IT BAD, its all ive thought about for the last 15 hours!

    I think Ron King made the Royal Crown and Triple Crown. I've been wanting a Triple Crown for years but never can find one. I will do some more research and see what I come up with.

    Ok from what I gather, The Royal Crown and Triple Crown are being made by Fox Archery, they just haven't updated their website in a long time.

    The background on this bow.. Owned by a guy that owns about 30 bows.. (according to bill, the shop owner, great guy by the way) This fella came into the shop the other day and found a bow he just had to have and decided to part with this King bow for trade.. its barely been used or shot.. Its like brand new.. they want 499 for it..Bill told me he would give it to me for 475.00

    Shed,

    Regardless of which model it is, you liked it and you might as well buy it. You can't take all that money with you! :d
