Which is more powerful air rifle or crossbows?
Whether or not an air rifle is more powerful than a cross bow depends on the air rifle or cross bow. Generally a hunter's cross bow is more powerful than a child's bb gun. However, during the Napoleonic Wars, the Austrians had an extremely powerful repeating air rifle. It could shoot several hundred meters. Austrian solders armed with them could shoot Napoleon's solders from such a great distance that Napoleon's solders could do nothing about it. Eventually they ran out of bullets.
What is the age and value of a shakespeare wonderbow recurve model x27 length 56in hd1148r?
In 1964 Shakespeare bows started to look similar to the Root Archery. Ernie Root sold several designs to Shakespeare and they modified them and renamed them. Root Brush Master became Shakespeare Kaibab; Root Game Master became Shakespeare Ocala. Shakespeare finally bought Root in 1967. Ernie Root continued to be an important influence in Shakespeare bow design. The first bows after the sale bore the name "Root, by Shakespeare". Shortly thereafter Ernie Root went to work for Shakespeare, and the Root name was dropped completely. This bow is a perfect example of Ernie Root design. In the early 1960's Root produced the Root Brush Master. The Brush Master had black glass, and the risers were laminated Zebrawood and Seduha. Shakespeare bought Root Archery in 1967 and Ernie was their chief bow designer. The Kaibab is nearly identical to the Brush Master except for slight riser modifications. From 1967 - 1970, The Kaibab was 58 inch long and had dark green glass. After 1971 it appears that Shakespeare was offering lengths of 56 and 58 inch in either dark Green or Black glass and did make custom bows over 60 lbs. The Kaibab was considered a high end quality bow like the Ocala and was Bear Archery's primary competitor.
How do you properly care for and store archery tabs?
If the finger tabs are made of either leather or cloth, make sure you wear them properly. Now to properly store tabs (ie. finger tabs), best treatment would be to store them out of the sun. Do now get them wet. Buffer the leather when necessary. Remember, these tabs will keep you from losing your index and middle finger.
What do the sizes of an archery arrow mean like 1716 1816 and 1913?
The first 2 numbers specify the diameter of the shaft in 64ths of an inch. The last 2 numbers specify the wall thickness of the shaft in thousands of an inch. For example size 1816 means the outside diameter is 18/64ths of an inch and the wall thickness is 16/1000th of an inch. Each size has a different stiffness which needs to be matched to the bow's draw weight and the length of the arrow. For example, a 50# Recurve @ 30" would require a 2117 shaft (or similar) while a 30# Recurve @ 26" could use something weaker such as a 1816 (or similar).
An archery Tab is a shaped, thin piece of leather which is used on the three fingers of the drawing hand to help to achieve a clean loose to the arrow. It is sometimes (mistakenly) thought to be to protect those fingers from the bowstring, obviously it does this too, but this is not it's primary function.
