Has anyone tried out the Ambush Recurve from Two Tracks? Looks like a great little bow. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Jake
Jake : They are great bows , fast even with my heavy arrows (875 gr)and 42#@28 draw bow. Smooth with no shock and a great grip, fits the hand very nicely. I have a long draw(30") and can shoot it well. I do get some finger pinch with such a short bow but I can live with that . Last but not least its pretty quiet , overall I like it alot . Hope this helps Drew (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v639/drewsbow/hill%20country%20bows/newbow008.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v639/drewsbow/hill%20country%20bows/newbow007.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v639/drewsbow/hill%20country%20bows/newbow006.jpg) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v639/drewsbow/hill%20country%20bows/newbow005.jpg)
Jake,
I love mine, 54@28. As Drew said, fast and quiet. Excellent workmanship and a fine looking bow.

Jake, chuck makes a nice bow, it shoots well and it would make a great blind or treestand bow.
He had one at our Bunny stomp and I don't think I heard a bad thing about it from everyone that shot it.
I have a 29" draw and enjoyed shooting it.
I have not shot one yet, however I have spoken with Chuck a couple of times, and he knows his stuff.... It is on my list for sure...
Chuck is a great guy, and a wealth of information...
Thanks Fellas, I was kinda hoping for some bad reviews so I wouldn't have to spend any more money... :knothead: :D
Phil and Drew- Thanks for the pics, those are great and just exactly what I was hoping for with this thread...you guys are the best :notworthy: What is the riser wood in those?
Have one on the way shot one at our Bunny Stomp and had to have it.
I'm going to say "ditto" to what Gator said!
I have shot one and really liked it alot. It is definately on my to get list. Smooth draw and I did not notice any finger pinch at my 28" draw. Very manuverable and points well.
The only negative I have to say about the bow is that someone came up to me while I was shooting it and said "Thats a cute bow..." :D Big Men don't shoot "Cute" bow right? LOL!!! I guess this guy will... and I'll even shoot pink feathers with it :)
You know, I did not read EXACTLY what Gator said...just the part about Chuck being a good guy and knowing his stuff. I have shot the Ambush and would not be afraid to get one if I was in the market for a short bow. I just got rid of my Dark Archer and only have one Super Shrew left, I'm going on a longer route.
Jake : I have no idea on the woods in this one sorry . Drew
Jake and Drew, That bow has an all Bacote riser as does the one that Phil(selfbow19953) is shooting. Thanks Again all.
Chuck
Never shot one but a cool looking bow.
Ive got one on order for my short curve needs! Cant wait.
Jake, Jake, Jake.... the quest never ends. Or should I say the fun never ends.
I shot it and it shoots well. Cute little bow. Finger pinch bugs me so I don't shoot short bows, but if you can deal with that it is a really nice bow. I know chuck can draw a looong way so they can take it, but you just have to be able to shoot with the more acute string angle. Really cool for shorter draws and blinds IMO.
Mark
I think you merely repeated yourself with that statement...LOL
Hey Matt, I still need you to shoot it again. I have never seen you shoot anything under 68"
Thanks again for the intrest guy's Nice to have talked to a few of you.
Chuck
