I am in the process of deciding which will be my next longbow. I have narrowed it down to three really, Great Northern Fireball, Kohannah Fury extreme and a Robertson Primal styk. Can anyone give me some input about any of the three. Thanks.

My brother had a fury and he spoke very highly of the bow. He is a lefty though- last time he let me shoot one of his bows I put an arrow through his garage. :eek: I didnt get to shoot his fury. :confused:

The Kohannah bows are one of the best out there for the price. I have a 3-peice Elite and his original longbow. I had a 58" fury and the only reason I sold it was because it was too short for my 30" draw. Bob will stand behind his product and is a joy to deal with. That Fury is fast and quiet.

They are all excellent brands. I haven't shot the exact models you're comparing, but I have owned a number of GN Critter Gitters and Robertson mystical, purist and vision longbows. Though I haven't owned a Kohannah, I have shot a few, can't remember the model. IMO, it's a very under rated bow. That is, it's an extremely good bow at a very good price. If you haven't already done so, you could shoot two out of the three at K-Zoo tomorrow. Good luck.

A lot of people really like the fireball. I have shot it, but it just wasn't for me. I had the Fury Extreme, and it was a great bow. I shot the standard fury 62" today. I liked that bow a lot. Maybe better than the extreme. Love that grip. I also liked the Dwyer Dauntless for a longer bow.

I have shot all three. The robertson is more of a traditional design. Less reflex/deflex. It's very light in the hand and casts an arrow pretty well. I thought the great northern and the fury extreme were definately faster. I just bought a kohannah elite up at the show. It is the fury limb in a take-down. I dont think you can go wrong with any of the three

I have a GN "boo" longbow that I dearly love and would never part with. Super smooth and absolutely no hand shock. However, I do most of my hunting with a GN fireball. It is super fast, and extremly quiet. Can't go wrong here with either one. But then again, I am a great Northern guy.

I have a 30+" draw, and though I've had stack on some bows,my Kohannah bows are smooth, and dead in the hand. Bob makes an excellent bow regardless of price

I love my Kohannah Fury Extreme, 48#@28.
The grip fits my hand perfectly, it's quick, and super quiet.
Treadways are awesome too, in that same price range.
Haven't shot the other two.
