Used Bows
Hunting and Target Bows With Prior Experience
The below lists some of the used bows and archery sets that we have in inventory or on consignment. Every used bow sold by NZAP has been thoroughly checked for safety and wear. We remove, check and lubricate the wheels and cams, check the axle pins for straightness and wear, replace the bushing if they are worn, and thoroughly check the strings, cables, mounting bolts, and limbs for defects. All these items are warranted for 30 days from purchase.( Dry firing any bow will void the warranty of course.)
Used attachments and accessories such as sights, quivers, arrows, releases, and arrow rests are sold as is, but we will not send you any attachment that is not a good value. Our stock is constantly changing so if you don't see the bow you are looking for, or if you need more information, give us a ring.
We are always looking for used bows to add to our inventory, so if you have a bow that is in good condition or better, and you would like to sell or trade it, give us a call or click NZAP Used Bows to send us an email describing what you have. If your used bow meets our high standards for resale we will either buy it outright or sell it for you on behalf
.Mathews Conquest 3
Hunting or Target Bow
The Mathews Conquest series of compound bows has been in production and has been progressively updated since 1999 now and is one of the winningest bows in the target and 3D circuits ever produced by Mathews or any other manufacturer. In fact, over the years Conquest models have actually accrued more professional tournament wins than any other compound bow ever produced. The Conquest 3 features a perimeter-weighted Conquest 3 Max Cam, harmonic dampers, V-Lock limb cups, a carbon cable rod and a fully machined riser.
This Conquest is loaded with features
The history of this bow is actually rather sad as we sold it new to an older gentleman on the North Island who found it too much to handle and after a year of struggle was forced to trade it in on a bow with a drastically lower draw weight. Consequently, this bow has seen very little use. It is in new condition and the only thing that marks it as used is a modified grip where the previous owner has reconfigured the shape to reflect the current trend towards a thinner profile. The modification is nicely done and we feel that it is a genuine improvement. If you don't agree, we will be glad to replace the grip with a new one for an additional $75.00.
Forgiving and Accurate
With its long draw length (41 inches axle-to-axle) the conquest 3 is a finger-shooter's dream with all the sweet-shooting characteristics of a long ATA bow that make them so popular on the target circuit. This one is finished in a popular camo pattern so it could be used as a target bow or as a hunting bow or even as both.
Rather than putting this bow together into a complete package, as we usually do with used bows, we are selling this one with no accessories. This is to give you the opportunity to build you own package deal depending on how you want to use the bow. Just send us a list of all the items you might want to purchase with the bow and we will get back to you with a package price, guaranteed to be the best in the land.

Complete Bowhunting Kit
Click for larger view
This Hoyt Trikon has been successfully used by one of New Zealand's top bow hunters and has accounted for a heap of deer, pigs, and chamois. This bow hunter has moved on to a newer bow an put his trusty Trikon up for sale. It is used, but still has plenty of life left in it. The harness is a bit worn but not ready for replacement, (the string and cables have about another year to go) and there are a few minor scratches and a bit of wear on the camo riser, but nothing to get concerned about. The NZAP Staff have rated this Hoyt Trikon's condition as good to very good.

QUICK TIPS
Finger Shooting Short Compound Bows
There is no question that today's amazingly short and light hunting compound bows perform best when used with a release aid, and many experienced shooters will say that shooting them with fingers isn't practical because of painful finger pinch caused by the acute angle of the string at the nocking point.
However, by drawing the bow with three fingers under the arrow, releasing the string with the bottom or even the bottom two fingers once you have reached full draw and the cam is in the let-off mode, then taking the shot with one or two fingers makes finger shooting short bows easy and effective. In fact, you should practice this technique even if you do rely on a release aid for most of your shooting.
At NZAP we hear frequent tales of woe from bowhunters who have had an important hunt ruined by a lost or malfunctioning release aid. If you have taught yourself to shoot with fingers, the loss of your release aid becomes an minor annoyance rather than a trip destroying disaster.
