Post by: sticshooter on October 30, 2007, 08:22:00 PM

sticshooter,   a buddy of mine had one and i shot it. the grip fit my hand very well and i don't have large hands. i didn't think the riser was oversized.   the bow seemed to be very well made and shot quiet and quick.

Do you mean Kent Roberts Ridgerunner Timberghosts? if so I bought the one off of 1/4away(beautiful bow w/ the bocote/cocobolo riser and bocote limbs) and don't think the handle is to big, love the thumb ridge, helps tremendously with consistent hand placement

I shot one last week! The riser was a custom and it had the same medium grip as a RER t/d. The one i shot was Kent's 56" model with longbow limbs. I was drawng it 30" and the bow shot very well and had good speed. I want to get one of them SOON!

Frank, this is as close to an "in hand" shot that I have. Gives you an idea of the riser size. This is Kent's longest riser. Sorry about the ugly guy holding the beautiful bow.

WOW these bows look good! I like the belly mounted limbs.  Bet they make for a smooth shooter.  How is the finish on them?  Are they quiet to shoot?  I must say I am interested.....

Frank, it's 58" with the LB limbs and I've got a set or recurve limbs that make a 54" bow.

Brett, the finish is excellent and they are quick and very nice to shoot. If there is a drawback, they take a little work to get quiet.
