looking at buying a super ghost recurve from great northern, looking for opions and pics to make my mind up
-
I don't own one yet, but I shot one at the Michigan Traditioal Jamboree in Grayling two weeks ago. I was very impressed. The grip fits my hand very nicely with a narrow throat and a slight palm swell. The arrow shelf is cut so that the arrow sits very near your hand. I think that makes them point well. Being cut slightly past center makes it a bit more forgiving in the area of spine too.

Fast, quiet, and stable - one of the best 50's style recurves out there IMHO!

My SuperGhost is one of the hardest shooting bows I own. Shoots my heavy arrows well and has some of the prettiest lines on the market.
Quiet too.
A big point for me is who is making the bow. I like to deal with good people...Jerry and Sharon are good people.

I know I want one.

Had one ,liked it, traded it, want another! And when I find the right one on the classifieds I will buy it! Jerry is great to deal with, had him reduce and refinish my last one and he did an excellent job at a fair price!!! :thumbsup:

Had a pair and its one of the cleanest most steamlined recurves made.I like the narrow deep cored limbs alot and the grips on the newer ones are even better than the older ones IMO.Very slick bow!Its tough as nails to.Mine had Osage limbs.They shot heavy arrows well.The hickory is some good limb wood and Jerry likes it alot in his bows.I would consider hickory if you buy one.Great hunting tool.

I have both a Super Ghost and a Ghost and love them both. I would recommend getting osage limbs, they are smoother drawing in my opinion. I think the best feature of these bows is how petite they are, very light and trim. They are also very attractive by design, no need for fancy features.

Have had a super ghost for 12 yrs now, awesome litle bow, I've got one of the few they made w/ an osage accent strip in the shedua riser, paduk and osage overlays on some really nice looking red elm limbs, had Jerry refinish and lower the weight a couple of years ago. Great guys to deal with and very nice shooting bows. Todd

get the new green one, look at the back page of your current TBM. I really want to know who did the type in the ad calling it a limited "adition" what is an adition - not addition or edition, my wife and I thought that was pretty funny - maybe there is a good reason
