Title: On the list.....bow delivered photo page 2
Post by: ron w on April 04, 2019, 08:25:10 AM
Just got on the list for a River Runner from Chad Holm. Going to get his new Kodiak Static recurve, a 58" model. Going to be my hunting bow to hunt out of my Waldrop pac-seat. Also going to be a dual shelf.

I’m going with brown glass on the back, spalted tamerind on the belly. The riser will Birdseye Maple with a Bubinga “I” beam. It will have a dual shelf and I know Chad will use his skills to create a great hunting bow.

Isn't there a limit on the number of bows a person can have in Georgia & is that the reason for that new shed ?(bow storage ?) :biglaugh:

Ok Ron, you need to stop!  I’ve been holding back from pulling the trigger with Chad, but I have a bad feeling this one will put me over the top!  Please don’t post pics!😥

 :dunno: Well, I have most of his other models so it’s only right I get one of these. :biglaugh:

I think Chad is a great guy and one of the most talented Bowyers out there. Congratulations! That’s going to be a sweet hunting rig. Ron, you need to stop holding out on us and post a pic of your Holm-Made Inventory. I know you have one.

Thanks KAT, well the bow came and I am very pleased. :thumbsup: great fit and finish, Chad nailed with my choice of woods.  43#@29”  but performs like it’s more. Beaver tail grip , dual shelf, and shoots great on both sides !!!

I am really pleased how this bow came out, even more pleased with how it shoots. Left or right hand this bow shoots like is 3-5 heavier than it is.  Very quiet and smooth as silk. I have said it before, Chads bows will shoot with the best of them and better than most !!!

Very interesting bow, Ron.  I was in Chad’s neighborhood a year or two ago and wanted to stop by his shop, but we couldn’t make our schedules work.
I’ll have to try again.

Great looking bow Ron!  I bet you are right about the performance, those static curves seem to add more zip!
