Title: Love that RER!
Post by: wihill on April 15, 2009, 10:44:00 PM
Picked up a new to me RER Vortex last weekend from another Tradgang member, and I can't believe I didn't get one of these things sooner.

62"AMO, 59# @ 28", beautiful waterfall ash lams, this thing puts an arrow downrange like it's already in the target.  Dead quiet and super easy to point.

I've been shooting it all week - at if I continue to do so I may need a new target.   :D    Everyone needs one of these things, I can understand the following.  

Really makes me want to pick up one of their three piece TD's, especially as smooth as this one is.

I have one of their take-downs and it's everything you describe.  

p.s. You can never have too many bows.

I've owned a couple of Vortex LB's and they are great shooters for sure.  Best of luck with it.

I now have a new CLX on order and trying not to think much about it.  With Kevin's backlog, I should see it late in the summer.  Now why did I bring that up???

Chris,

Try one of the RER Arroyo 54" one piece recurves.  It provides a new definition for shooting qualities for me.  It will be in the treestand with me this fall.  And don't be afraid of its length.  It is a treat to shoot at my 28" draw length and I've read others who have had similar experiences with 29" draw lengths.

I've owned a bunch of RER bows with my little black Vortex being my keeper bow for sure. Killed a bunch of deer with it and it is my all time favotite one piece R/D longbow. Kevin and Sue are great people and stand behind their product.

I need to get an account over on the photobucket thing...  I've got them on another server (that a few of you know me on  :D  ), but I'm sure if I put them up they'll be over the 640x480 resolution and Terry will squash me like a bug.

Oh pooh - it's easier to ask for forgiveness anyway..

Nice lookind bow, but Kevin has a tendancy to cut those risers on the wrong side all the time;)
Love that Waterfall Ash.
Got one more week to wait myself and I will be the happy owner of a new RER LXR takedown.

They make a great bow. Great looking and shooting. I might mention they are also great people to deal with. I believe I have six? Can't have to many RER's Nice bow by the way.
