I have owned and shot a ton of bows. One I will never sell is a 64" Horne's Traditionalist.   :thumbsup:   Standard plain jane bow with maple cores. Shoots better than alot of bows that cost more. Smooth to draw, quiet, fast , no hand shock and hits where your looking. A very easy Longbow to shoot because of the handle and the brace height.The way the handle/riser is made it fits your hand like a glove. Positive hand placement = accuracy   :archer:

I don't own one...but wish I did.  I shot one a great deal at the TX Sweat 07.  It was one that Mark himself brought and it shot like a house a fire.  All positives and no negatives that I could find.

I agree with Bentpole and Terry. I have one and it is a sweet shooting bow.  :thumbsup:  
Not to mention Mark and Sandy are great folks to deal with. I believe Littlefeather has killed a dumptruck load of critters with a bow built by Mark.

I have shot Bentpole's Traditionalist. That bow is a great shooter for sure. I think Bentpole has owned that bow longer than any of the many other bows he has owned so he must like it.
