I have an Orion longbow.  It is as fast and quiet as any hybrid or recurve I have shot.  I hear the recurve limbs are as fast as anything out there.  The bow points well.  I shoot it better than any bow I have had.  I have another one on order with recurve and longbow limbs.  This bow is the best bow out there exspecially for the price imho.  Mike is a top notch guy as well.  I don't think you will be dissapointed.

I also have one (longbow).  A great bow.  Quick, stable, I like the grip.  Workmanship is very good.  Mike and Jason good guys to deal with. Buddy of mine, KCTREEMAN, picked up one of the recurves over last weekend, and loves it.   I can recommend the bow.

I saw 2 of the Orion recurves shot at Mojam this past weekend but I didn't hear them. Maybe the quietest bows I've never heard. The bows on display at the Dryad tent were works of art.

Jason just doesn't get enough notoriety, he is the Man behind the Orion. His bow is the best recurve/longbow I have shot in a while. Mike and Connie did real good raisin Jason. Course I'm kinda partial.
