I ordered a 58" 50#@28" LH Chiron Volcano the other day. Found one in stock and it will be here on the 13th.
I love 58" bows and there just don't seem to be many being made, particularly left handers.
Thought it was a pretty bow and a person would be hard pressed to beat the price($239 new). Kind of a pleasant surprise when most production recurves start at around $400 and go up from there...
I figure if nothing else it will be a nice "basement bow" to keep my form & conditioning up to speed on those 20 below days. With my low basement ceiling banging a limb tip can happen, and I would much rather bang a limb tip on a $239 bow than my much more costly Lee Hunter or Kota Prairie Swift...
Besides, I have a couple open spaces on my bow rack that need to be filled...
Anyone have one of these bows? How does it shoot and what do you think of it...
I don't know anything about the bow. Matter of fact I don't know a whole lot about anything! I see that you are from Devils Lake. How is the ice fishing? I want to come up there a ice fish sometime. Been trying to convince the guys at church to rent one of those sleep in ice huts for a few days.
I had one two years ago. That bow is very nice and will shoot with a lot of custom made bows. You are going to be pleasantly suprised.
very happy with mine, 50# also. 29 1/2" 2016s with 145 bear razor heads. a lot more bow for the money than anything else i've ran across lately.
Thanks George, bigiron...
IA, the only time I go out on the ice is to call coyotes, so I don't have any info on the ice fishing. Lots of folks out there, so it must be going OK...
I bought a Samick Leopard last winter, another cheaper production bow. It shoots great for me. There is a lot to be said about these cheaper bows getting more people into trad archery.
