Well, I'm gonna have to chime in here for sure. I've got one and I love it. I don't even use silencers on it as it's already quiet enough for me. I like it's short length too. Shoots great also!

Here's some pics for ya(remember you asked for them!)(:

Dave makes a bow that's smooth and accurate. He is also a darn good guy who will work hard to please you.

I have a 56" 60# Zebrawood and Black Palm.
Fast, quiet, and no hand shock.
Dave makes an awesome bow and is a top bloke to deal with.
I will be ordering another before the year's over.
Cheers Lindsay

I havent seen or shot one in person but I have talked to him a time or two and I dont think you could go wrong with one of his bows, he is a great guy who just loves building bows!

I have been in his shop and shot bows with Dave Beeler.  You won't find a better guy to deal with!  

He told me a while back that he had 15 bows on order.  I said looks like you need to raise your prices.  He said, and I quote: "Nope!  When I started doing this I said I was going to make quality bows that the average guy can afford.  I won't be raising my prices."

I love the hybrid design and will own one myself someday!  By the way, he is also making a recurve.

A dang fine bow if you ask me! I've got a great little shooter that's 58" and 55# @ 28". I pull it 58# at my 29" draw and it shoots very smooth. It is the heaviest bow I have and I usually limit myself to no more than 53# due to a shoulder injury. This bow pulls that smooth!

I see he has gone to black glass for all his bows now.

Bucky,
He said he was getting very inconsistent clear glass and was getting very frustrated with it.  The man wants to turn out a consistently high quality product and he didn't feel the clear glass was living up to those standards!

Not sure if it is okay for me to post his website or not.  But I bet you can find it by searching for Beeler Traditional Bows.

He is a member here at Tradgang. I think it's okay to post links, as long as it's not a link to another forum or chat sight.

Here's his website:
