They are outstanding bows. I have six Quests and rank them among the most outstanding bows made. In three piece takedown bows, only my Morrisons shoot as well for me, with my Blacktails not far behind. I don't shoot some of the other really popular 3 piece bows, so I can't compare them all, but you absolutely cannot go wrong with a Quest. If you order one from Bill Howland you will have to wait more than a year, but it is worth the wait.

I picked one up a while back. Its a fine shooting bow and fairly quiet.The bow is an easy bow to get along with and the grip is nice. There are lots of good bows out there now and Bracks are one of the tops in all around shooting qualities. Good Luck

Terrific bow!

I have two Brackenbury's,  a Quest and a non-typical.  Cannot go wrong with either.  

Talk to Bill Howland.  He is a great fellow and he'll work with you to build a bow that best fits you.

They are fantastic and Bill is a straight shooter as well as a wealth of knowledge when it comes to bow building.

Give him a call and talk to him. He will take care of you.

I have 2 Quests and 3 Non-Typicals.  They are my favorite bows and Bill is great to work with.  Not sure where Mitchell is but I live N of Fort Wayne if you want to shoot one of mine.

I have a Quest and another one on order.

To me, it's all about the grip. Brack's have the best fitting grip of any bow I ever shot.

The Quest is Bill's new design. The older bows are all great shooters as well. I had a Drifter several years ago and sold it. Dumbest thing I ever did.
