Iam familiar with the Dwyer original and own a couple of them. They are the nicest D shaped bow I have shot and have shot MANY. I have heard good things about the JD Berry too. Any input? Thanks. BILL
I love my Dwyer bows, and I have shot many as well.

Never shot a Dwyer but have owned a JD Berry Reannaisance and currently own a Taipan. I loved the Renn. and really love my forward handle Taipan Accuracy. Incredible craftsmanship and artistry. Trapezoid limbs draw smooth and shoot fast. I highly recommend them. My bow has a yew core and limbs. I think it has 7 laminations, elk antler inlay and diamondwood arcs that change color in the light. I mean the attention to detail is amazing. Its an heirloom bow that loves being in the woods.

Even the writing on the bow is like caligraphy!

My taipan is by far my favorite bow. i also have a berry argos. its awesome. on my taipan i have all yew limbs. never shot another bow i liked better. so after allready haveing james make me two bows. i am going to have him make me a third soon. i am going with another tai pan with a persimmon riser. first i gotta find a nice piece.
give james a call. 509-299-3029. u wont regret it. and as above. love the reverse style grip. and all the amazing workmanship in the riser and limbs.
You could not go wrong with either one.
Both are excellent bows.
Shot the best rounds of my life this weekend with a Berry Argos.
Well I guess I got to go with the Berry Bow.
Got a Berry Argos just a short while ago and I honestly couldn't imagine anything better.
Berry bows are awsome..
Can`t tell you much about the Berry bows but the Dwyers are awesome. I have a dauntless that is a great bow. It is a little light in draw weight so it doesn`t get shot all that much but it smokes a carbon arrow. I would recommend a Dwyer any day. you won`t be dissapointed.
I've heard good things about both, but far more good about Dwyers. Personally I'd go for the Dwyer, just because I find them really appealing, but that is a matter of opinion, not fact^^
Tough to beat them Dwyers !!
I have never shot Dwyers. Among all the Berrys I have, I like the Renaissance the best. Sweet and fast. The workmanship is impeccable with inlays and many many kind of woods. Just in the past year in my local club there are 12+ Berry bows ordered. More than 6 of them are Renaissance.
I have owned both.....and to this day only own the Jd Berry Yaweh built back when James and Dan were still together.
I have shot the Dwyer "Endeavour" and its an incredible bow. I think that it will be my next bow as soon as I have the money saved!
I own a Viper and Apollo.Bought the viper second hand and the apollo was made for me.I shoot them both well.Will never let them go.James is a great guy .He loves to talk on the phone.give him a call.Have never shot Dwyers.
I have had both and you cannot go wrong with either. Ken
