Chad shipped me my new bow today. Can not wait to see her and shoot it. It is the newer NAT model and hope to take a turkey with it before May is over. Tall order, but you never know. I will have to have him post pics because I just can't seem to get them to work. Boctote with maple and grey 54" and 51 @ 26". You have to love a guy like Chad who puts everything into what he makes.

WOW !! What a great lookin bow !!!
:clapper:
Holy Moley!!!!!!!!! :notworthy:
Sweet limbs.
Chad,
I think I am gonna have a heart attack!!! It is more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. Will let you know when I get her. Her name is "ONE SHOT" in tribute to my Dad.
She is something else. Can't wait to put an arrow through her. Thanks so much Chad.
That is Sweet!
WOW shes a looker fer sure!!!!!!!!!
Congrats to the new owner and to the bowyer.Keep us posted how it shoots.I don't know why I like more the lefties!!!
Sweet looking bow,very nice!
WOW!!!
Now that's one purty bow right there!
Chad, you're gettin' the fancy bug on you. I sold my old longbow yesterday and been thinking about the woods for my back up Lost Creek. I actually was considering Walnut dymondwood with black glass...not anymore!
Crotch Horn, be sure to give us the low-down on this bow when you receive it. What are those limb veneers? What limb core wood? Etc, Etc....
Great lookin' bow CH!
Look forward to hear how it shoots for you.
Shoot straight, Shinken
Nice! 54" ohhhh, I have always wanted a 54" bow.
Nice!!! :thumbsup:
What a beautiful and striking looking bow! Probably one of the nicest that I have ever seen.
Hey Chad, maybe you have one hangin' around that me and BUCKY could test drive?
WOW!!!! I just keep stairing at the pictures and pinching myself. Still can't believe that bow is coming to me. Chad, when we discussed the woods you took me in the right direction. Guys, if you are waiting or thinking of contacting Chad, just do it. What is the worst that can happen, divorce court? Big deal, you can feed yourself with critters from your new love, your Lost Creek.
Very nice looking bow. :thumbsup:
Great looking bow! Any chance of seeing one at Compton's?
Sweeeeeettt!!!
Wow! That's a baby doll. I really want to try one of those 54" NATs. I asked Chad to bring at least one to ATAR this year. I hope he has one with him.
Congrats on a fine lookin stick.
Definitely a good looking bow! Congratulations. :thumbsup:
Hi Crotch Horn-
I for one, am waiting on your next post on the NAT.
Please comply immediately, with full specs and pics.
Or else! (What does that mean? I'll have to order one for myself and do my own review???)
DON'T...MAKE...ME ..DO ..IT! (Shatner)
Man, that is one pretty little bow! The shelf is on the wrong side though! :thumbsup:
Well, I have the bow in my grubby little hands. Polished it all up with one part drool & two parts slobber! She is better in person if you can believe that but I work 12.5 hour nights so I will shoot her for the first time Saturday evening. Hope to chrono & tune some arrows to hunt turkeys for the rest of May. Will give a full review once I play with her.
Waitin' for it, Crotch Horn!
I know my LC has some fondle marks that will never go away. Let us know!
we love our Lost Creeks!
OK guys I have shot my new NAT and all I can say is AWSOME!!!! I got more than I paid for IMHO.
Shot the first shot like it was a bow I had been shooting for years. Can't believe how well she spits an arrow. I shot some different arrows and weights but it liked them all. Chrono. some and here is what I got...
CX 150 680 grain 148 fps
CX 150 630 grain 155 fps
CX 250 775 grain 145 fps
CX Maxima 250 550 grain 166 fps
CX Maxima 250 492 grain 183 fps
Out of all the arrows I liked the way the max.250 550 grain arrows flew like absolute darts. I was hitting dead on from 25yds in. & that is right out of the box. Did not even move the nock or anything. Chad, what a bow. Guys, this bow shoots right with my Morrisons, Bob Lee, Mikuta and Palmer. The best part is thw size of the bow. 54" and will be a great hunting bow for tree stand & blind hunting. Bow is 51@26 but I was shooting it at 27" today. Great bow boys now go get yourself one. Will be in the turkey woods with it in the morning. Chad, I can't thank you enough.
Crotch horn, I'm glad you like the little N.A.T., as much as I do mine. Since I built a new one two months ago for myself its been my go to bow. The best part about the bow is the speed and user friendly length. The very little shock and noise the bow makes is the other best part. I just love my N.A.T. enjoy your and hope to see a turkey kill picture soon. Chad
Chad,
I know I have said this enough times but you are an artist. This NAT design is as user friendly as it gets. I will let you know when I break it in (hopefully on a turkey). Just going to bed. We had an emergency visit to two different vets with our dog tonight. She is doing better and sleeping calmly next to me now. Thank God. My wife wants me to stay home just in case today. I may get out late in the morning (only can hunt to noon). Once again guys, this bow is the one for me. I am so glad I had you put "one shot" on it in tribute to my dad. Means a lot to me and he will help guide me whenever I need him. Time to sleep.
Still no luck. Had 8 gobblers and at least 10 jakes around me yesterday but the closest a Tom came in was 46yds. Will be out Sunday- Tuesday next week. Good luck to all. By the way Chad, I love this bow more & more!
Hey Crotch Horn,
enough trying to shoot a turkey and post some new pics already!
I saw the ones Chad posted for you but I..need..more. I'm trying to decide on the woods for my next LC and need some inspiration. (actually thinking about Chad's recurve this time)
thanks and congrats again on the new NAT!
Colongbow,
I saw the pics of your LC and you have something there as well. Very nice bow. I can't ever get pics to load on this site. Shoot me your email and I will get you some more pics. Thanks for the compliments on the bow guys. She shoots like a dream.
