I just got back from the range.  It shoots as good as it looks.  I wasn't ready to quit shooting,  but i only took 6 arrows with me and broke the knocks off of 5 of them.

Very nice River Runner there  :)  Love the I-beam and Kodiak grip.

Chad's bows are sweet and shoot better than than they look.

I have a 58" River Runner and it is a nock buster too.

Enjoy your bow  :)

I agree, real nice bow you got there, Chad does make a nice bow. I had one of his Osprey longbows and wish I still did

I too agree that your new River Runner is a beauty and that Chad makes a great bow. Unlike Stickbowguy, I actually do still have my Osprey and love it. I have shot several River Runners and they shoot very well too. I have said it before and I'll say it again, Chad's bows are about as good as they get and are the best buy I know of in a bow. If I could have an Osprey as my only bow for the rest of my days, I would be happy. Of course, I am even happier to have many other nice bows. Chad is also one of the best people I have ever had the privilege of sharing a hunting camp with.
