thats a beauty.i shot his new design and they shoot faster than his original.50lb bow acc to mike shoots as fast as a 55lb he makes.i ordered one for my wife.he said after 2 weeks if she was not satisfied or didn't like it he would refund our money.oh by the way we didn't have to put any money down.he is an exceptional guy in that if you are not happy he isn't.thats good to live by.

See, you're right. I shot the same arrow I have set up for my Morrison and it is 3# heavier than my Treadway. It flies great and seems just as fast but I don't have a chrony to check. This bow is a joy to shoot, smooth and easy to point.

Mike is the real deal. He's one of the most genuine, down to earth people I have ever dealt with. He said I might not like the bow. If don't like it just send it back. Yeah right! This is a keeper.

is this supposed to be the forward handle riser that Mike was coming out with or is it a different one?

Yep, it's his new forward design.

The bow is 60" and 42@28". I have a neck injury that keeps me from shooting anything above 45-46#. This one is a pleasure to shoot.

I know for sure that's where the expression came from !!!!


" If Look's could kill "


Great-looking bow, and I understand about the 42# I shoot one myself for similar reasons.

Talking to Mike at the Hickory shoot, he told me the last elk he killed was with one of his bows at 41 lbs.  It was a pass through.
