Froggy,

I just bought a used one off of this site and it should be here soon.  I have never shot one, but always like to try something new once in a while  :cool:  

I haven's heard anything bad about these bows and I can't wait to shoot it.  Be sure to post pictures when you can!

A nice shooting bow and very well made.  My only complaint was that it was a little louder than I would have expected.

and mine is so quiet you don't hear anything but a thump.  That being said, carbon arrows are noticeably louder & are more sensitive to brace height adjustments.  Aluminums & woodies are just a thump.

To all that posted. got the Tundra Wolf 58" 60#@28 Bacote riser, Red Elm limbs today. strung it up, brace was dead on 7". went out and shot a few, gotta say, she's quiet as a mouse, and awful quick with no handshock. what more could you ask. my first impression is very positive. easy on the eyes also. craftsmanship top notch.  :thumbsup:   thanks to all that posted...  Froggy

Caribows are one of the best longbows out there.  I have owned 3 Featherhorns (still have my first one) and have never shot a nicer longbow.  I did shoot a Tundra Wolf once and thought it shot great too but it was a little louder than my Featherhorns, but it wasn't set up for me either so this could have contributed.  Abe Penner makes a really nice bow in both shootability and performance - you're really going to enjoy that one.
