St. Joe River Bows ~ Children’s Outgrown Youth Bow Program
St. Joe River Bows would like to ease some of the financial issues with buying
a quality bow for your child. Any Lil Rapids or Big Rapids purchased from St.
Joe River Bows may be traded in on your next bow purchase.
Here’s how it works: Just contact us. If the bow is in good working (resellable condition), we will apply 50% of the original purchase price toward the purchase of your new bow.
We carry a good variety of 46-48" Lil Rapids and 52” Big Rapids in many colors, woods and poundages. We also offer some 56" Torrent longbows and 54" Torrent recurve in lower poundages (under 35#) that are designed as an interim bow for shorter draw shooters that may not fit an adult bow yet. Call anytime for questions on what we may have to fit your child.
It is our sincere desire that by providing youth with quality bows they will
have greater success/fun in their shooting and fall in love with this great
sport as we have.
Trade in program is Non-Transferable and is only for bows purchased directly from us or one of our authorized dealers.
Bow Model Info
Torrent Model vs Classic Model
There are several differences. The length of riser is shorter on the Torrent thus the ratio of riser to working limb is different. The Torrent was designed for longer draw shooters that wanted a shorter longbow or recurve for the hunting situations where a longer bow may be difficult to maneuver. The Torrent models feature longer working limb to shorter riser to achieve this. Torrent longbows thus only come in 56"-60" vs. the Classic longbow that comes in 58"-66". Torrent recurve 54"-56" vs. Classic recurves 58"-64". Our 56" Torrent recurve can be drawn to 31" with no issues. To accommodate a 31" draw in the Classic recurve you would need to choose a 62" or 64".
There are also several similarities. Both Torrent and Classic longbows feature our unique reflex/deflex design that strings up to a perfect longbow D shape. Both models of recurve and longbow are forward handle and have some characteristics of a flat limb bow.
