I met a fellow trad shooter sat night, and he is letting me use his 68@28 63" ehlburg recurve. I am amazed at the speed. Even shooting my 700 grn hickories it is screaming fast. I'll post some pics tomorrow but I was wondering if anybody else has ever owned or shot one.
They are nice fast bows. I almost bought one but I own a few Matlocks and they are very similar and just as fast.
I have a 64" elburg cheetah. When it's unstrung it looks like a double ended ski. It really screams an arrow.
Fireball31, I'd love to see pictures of that bow!
God bless,
Jose
I'll have the pics up this evening when I get back from class
I had the chance to sit and talk with Mr. Elburg (no H in his name) at Denton Hill in the 1990's. At that time he was building bows and had his Grizzly Broadheads there as well. His bows are sought-after nowadays and for good reason.

Thanks for the pictures. I am a fan of his bows. I own several of his longbows, but not a single recurve. That one is a beauty, pretty lines too. Enjoy!
God bless,
Jose
