The Stickbow Chronicles

I think it is safe to say that nobody has ran more broadheads through such a wide variety of animals in the last three years with a stickbow than Aron. Being a gear guy with a show me attitude he has tried multiple heads in a variety of price ranges and designs. Keeping notes through his 3 year trad journey he found some interesting things that might save you some money, surprise you, even rile a few people up, but would expect anything less from this guy?

When tragedy struck in Ken's life he looked towards a defunct bow building company for comfort. The purchase of a traditional bow making company in the 80's was by no means a financially sound decision.  However Ken did find solace in building bows and as his passion grew so did the company. When a resurgence in traditional archery occurred in the early 90's the Blackwidow Bow Company was riding that wave perfectly positioned to regain its former reputation as a world renowned bow.This is the story
