2012
55 Years
Your Adventure Begins Here...
Greetings from Black Widow Bows!
55 Years! Whew, my how time flies when you’re having fun. There have been many different bow models
in the 55 years since Jack, Bob and Norman Wilson started building bows in their garage in Springfield,
Missouri in 1957. To commemorate 55 years of Black Widow Bows, we would like to introduce our
newest bow model into the Black Widow fold. The KB recurve model is simply a one-piece version of
the PCH take-down with the graceful curves of a lovely lady. The KB designation was given in honor of
the previous owner of Black Widow Custom Bows, Ken Beck. Ken has come to prefer the “SHORT and
SWEET” hunting advantages of these compact bows.
To also celebrate our 55th Anniversary, we are offering a special laser overlay that can be added to any
new bow order in 2012. The Bamboo or Osage inner overlay will have “55th Anniversary” lasered on the
top with the spider on the lower (unless you would like something else). The contrasting outer overlay
will add a look of distinction to your special bow.
We are also offering a limited edition 55th Anniversary knife made by Tom McGinnis of Ozark, Missouri.
There will be a limited number of 100 knives built. Tom also built our 50th Anniversary knife. The
Damascus steel blade and stabilized Osage handle will make a nice addition to your collection.
Life is an adventure and we would hope your hunting adventure would start here with a bow…a Black
Widow Bow.
A wise man once said “As long as your heart is beating in your chest, God has a purpose for you.” Let
your adventure begin.
Shoot straight,
Roger Fulton, Toby Essick and John Clayman
“May the good LORD be your Outfitter and Guide; May HE cause you to always shoot straight; And may
the trophies you pursue be worthy of the Book.”
Toby Essick, his 46# KB X and Missouri Ozarks buck.

What are the differences between our recurve bow models? PSA II with

A common question we are asked is “What’s the difference between the PMA, PSA and the PCH models?” The
answer is quite simple. In the photo of the three 60” take-down bows on the left, notice the riser lengths of the

different models. The PMA has an 18” riser with a 5” sight window. The PSA has 16” riser with a 4” sight window Inserts
and the PCH has a 14” riser with a 3” sight window. Bottom line is that in these three bows the 60” PMA will have
a 2” longer riser than the 60” PSA and a 4” longer riser than the 60” PCH. This allows the 60” PCH to have a 4”

longer working limb than the 60” PMA and a 2” longer working limb over a 60” PSA. The advantage of the shorter Quiver Inserts
risers is that you can shoot a longer working limb with the same length of bow. There will be minimal performance
difference as all of the bows have the same limb design.
The length of working limb is important in determining your optimal limb length for your draw

The difference between the KB, PA and PTF models are much the same. The KB model will have a 2 ½” sight win-
dow compared to 3 ½” on the PA and PTF models. The riser on the KB model is 2” shorter, from fadeout to fadeout
than the PA and PTF models.

FIVE YEAR PRO-RATED LIMITED WARRANTY:
Should damage or failure occur to a Black Widow bow within a period of one year from the date of shipment due to inferior materials or workmanship we will make
free repair, or replacement if repair is not possible. After the one year period, repair will be made at a reasonable charge. If, at the discretion of Black Widow
Custom Bows repair is not possible, replacement will be made on the basis of 1/48th of the current retail price per month from the first anniversary of the date of
shipment. For example, if the current price of a set of bow limbs at the time of replacement is $594.00, the per month replacement charge from the first anniversary
date of shipment would be $12.38 per month. If this were to happen after 24 months from the date of shipment (12 months from first anniversary date) the replacement
cost would be $148.56 ($12.38 x 12 months). Replacement will be made with a bow of the same model, or as near as possible if models have changed.
THIS WARRANTY APPLIES TO THE ORIGINAL OWNER ONLY.
The above provisions will apply unless the bow shows evidence of misuse, abuse, alteration, improper handling, or damage as a result of shoot-
ing arrows weighing less than 8 grains per pound of draw weight (we recommend 9 to 11 or more; especially with long draw lengths of 29 inches
or more, which can significantly increase the possibility of limb tip damage when using a high performance bowstring) or during the stringing or
unstringing process.
No adjustment can be made until the bow is returned to Black Widow Custom Bows for inspection. If it is necessary to return your bow to the factory for repair be certain to pack
it carefully to prevent damage from shipping. To insure that you do not do something that will void your warranty be sure to read and follow the instructions in the Owners Manual and
watch the Owner’s Manual DVD before assembling, stringing and shooting your bow.
TEST DRIVE A Black
Widow
You like to test drive a car before you buy, right? Now you can test drive a Black Widow before you buy!
We now have a fleet of DEMO bows in our inventory for just that purpose.
Here is how it works:
1. If you would like to get your hands on a Black Widow to try out for a week, just give us a call and together we can
select a bow out of our DEMO fleet that is close to what you are interested in ordering.
2. You may send a money order or we can charge your credit card for the price of that model of bow plus UPS 2nd
day shipping and insurance BOTH ways. Please give us a shipping address where there will be some
one available to receive and sign for the bow.
3. After you shoot the bow for one week simply affix the enclosed return shipping label and have UPS return it to us.
4. Assuming the bow and components are returned to us in normal condition, we will then send you a refund check
or credit your charge card for the price of the bow (you end up paying only the shipping and insurance).
Or, if at that time you decide you want to order a Black Widow bow, we will transfer your payment to your new bow order and build one for you at the
specifications you prefer and we will pay the shipping on your new bow when completed!

finding it when you return! This has actually happened to several owners of

MODEL PMA V TAKE-DOWN RECURVE: In the tropical jungles of South
America grows a tree that has earned the common name of “Ironwood”. It
is known for its amazing strength, density and hardness (two to three times
harder than oak). We have chosen to use this rich, walnut colored exotic wood
in the handle of the PMA V “Ironwood” bow. It is, indeed, as tough as iron! To
compliment and match the toughness of the “Ironwood” handle in this bow
we are using vertically stacked, stained, bamboo laminations in the limbs to
further enhance feel and performance.

consistency than we have ever been able to achieve in the past. The black “phenolic” riser sec-
tions of the handle and limbs make a distinctive two-tone contrast; plus they are more impervious
to moisture in the critical areas around the mounting pins and limb bolts. The extended shelf
provides more protection for the hand and the outside edge of the shelf is relieved to make it
easier to achieve good arrow flight off-the-shelf. If smoothness and comfort are more important
to you than maneuverability, then the PMA series may be your Black Widow of choice. The
longer handle, with it’s long sight window, also permits the use of sights if that is your game (see
RECOMMENDED LIMB LENGTHS).

harder than oak). We have chosen to use this rich, walnut colored exotic wood
in the handle of the PSA V “Ironwood” bow. It is, indeed, as tough as iron! To
compliment and match the toughness of the“Ironwood” handle in this bow
we are using vertically stacked, stained, bamboo laminations in the limbs to
further enhance feel and performance.

PSA II PSA III PSA V PSA X PSA X
(Graybark) (Autumn Oak) (Ironwood) (Curly Maple) (Bocote)
The PSA series take-downs are CNC “precision crafted” with greater accuracy, detail and con-
sistency than we have ever been able to achieve in the past. The black “phenolic” riser sec-
tions of the handle and limbs make a distinctive two-tone contrast; plus they are more impervi-
ous to moisture in the critical areas around the mounting pins and limb bolts. The extended
shelf provides more protection for the hand and the outside edge of the shelf is relieved to make
it easier to achieve good arrow flight off-the-shelf. The PSA has a two inch shorter handle than
the PMA series and is intended for the instinctive shooter that can utilize a shorter sight win-
dow than the PMA series. The shorter handle, in turn, allows for a comparatively longer work-
ing limb, making it possible to use a shorter overall bow length for greater maneuverability (see
RECOMMENDED LIMB LENGTHS).

PCH II PCH III PCH V PCH X PCH X
(Graybark) (Autumn Oak) (Ironwood) (Tulipwood) (Bocote)
The PCH was conceived in the shadows of the PMA and the PSA to meet a growing desire for a
compact, handier and more maneuverable weapon for close quarter shooting from ground blinds,
brush or tree stands. The PRECISION COMPACT HUNTER has the same deep-deflex design as
it’s cousins but with a shorter riser allowing for a generous working limb. This provides you with
a short, compact bow with less finger pinch and a smoother draw than most other bows of the
same limb length. Whether contorting to get a shot from a ground blind, twisting to take that big
buck that slipped in behind your tree stand or chasing after elk on horseback in the high country
of the Rocky Mountains, this Widow gives you the best of both worlds… SHORT and SWEET! The
PCH bows are CNC “precision crafted” and have a two inch shorter handle than the PSA series.

BACK TO THE FIFTIES! The CNC “precision crafted” Black Widow “SHORT”
recurve (PSR) was designed for the hunter who loves the simple, nostalgic
look of the 1950s and longs for a short, more maneuverable bow but without the
stack and finger pinch that normally occurs with shorter bows. As was often
the case in those days, this recurve has a longbow grip and riser. It has exactly
the same grip and riser as our PL longbow, which makes it unbelievably easy
to switch back and forth between these two bows. What about performance?
The PSR series matches the performance of all our other models. Need we

Yes, the CNC “precision crafted” Black Widow longbow is as fast and sweet to shoot as a Black Widow
recurve. You just may fall in love with this long, lean and lovely lady with just enough curves to turn on any
red-blooded bowhunter. Even though she appears very slim and delicate, she packs a powerful punch. In
fact, she zings a heavy arrow as fast as our recurves. The locator grip provides positive and consistent
hand placement, yet has a traditional appearance. Most Black Widow recurve shooters can pick up this
longbow, grip it by the throat just like they do their recurve and immediately hit where they look without
having to make adjustments. In fact, the PSR recurve has exactly the same grip and riser as this longbow.
This makes it unbelievably easy to switch back and forth between these two bows. You have to shoot this
bow to believe it! (See our TEST DRIVE program on page two.) Available in a one-piece or take-down ver-
sion. See RECOMMENDED LIMB LENGTHS.
