I've recently been bitten by the trad bug and I'm interested in buying or trading for a 40# beginner/intermediate recurve bow. I'd prefer a takedown similar to the Sage, Sage elite, or Galaxy ember. Thanks
You could try Traditional groups on facebook,
Also, people LOVE the black hunter recurve bows. You can get full setup for $99 (or even less) from ebay and amazon.
Or you can pay a little more from Twig Archery for a nicely setup one but either way my Traditional Bowhunters facebook feed is full of people raving about how good a bow it is for the money.
There's a lot of makers and copies and it's cheap enough I have thought about trying one out. Good luck!
