Chad,
Congrats on a fine looking bow!! I am sure the anticipation of running some arrows through it is eating at you but more importantly you are alright from the motorcycle mishap!!
You can now help thin the herd out with your Robertson :) Get well, good luck this season.
Fellow Michigander
Nive Looking bow! you can always send it to me and I can tell you how it shoot!!!
hoppe you get to shoot it soon!
I like Robertson bows,they shoot as good as they look,nice wood combo.I am glad you aren't been hurted.By the way did you already proceded that deer?
i hit a deer up by higgins lake with my wife on back several years ago....we were very lucky also... the juniper on those limbs really sets it off....hope you heal soon and it shoots as good as it looks
Great looking bow. I love those wood combinations.
it's a beauty
Awesome looking bow.
Pretty, hope you heal up fast!
Beautiful bow Chad.
I really like your choice of woods.
Congrats
Good looking bow.
Nice contrast of woods
Very Nice!! :thumbsup:
Dick and family make great bows. I had two takedowns and foolishly sold them both years ago. Wish I had them now, especially after seeing yours.Must be torture not shooting it.
Congrats! Gorgeous bow
F-Manny
beautiful bow man!
Dick,
Finds some of the best juniper veneers I've seen.
Nicely done!
any chance you could get us a pic braced or at full draw? good lookin bow.
Now that is why I love Myrtle and Juniper. Excellent choice, someday my dream bow may very well have that same combo of woods! :thumbsup: :notworthy:
Enjoy
Travis
That is one sweet bow. And a lefty to boot... God's speed on recovery.

That is one beautiful bow!
I love that bow!!!
Chad, heal up quick bud! The bow looks sweet, guess i'm gonna have to start practicing lefty so i can shoot it! :p ;)
Dude that is a sweet bow. I remember at the MTB shoot you said you had one on order. She's a beaut man!!
Hope you heal up soon man. I have had a few close calls on my bikes, I couldn't imagine actually hitting one of those critters. Glad your gonna be alright. Take care bud and talk to you soon.
Awesome bow, very beautiful!! I have seen some great works of art from Robertson over the years, now you have one!
Chad: I have the same bow, different wood choices, your gonna love it. I think Dick has one of the best grips on Recurves, your hand just slides into the same place everytime. It has become my go to bow. Hope you get to shoot it soon. R.W.
That is a beauty for sure. Must be torture to not be able to shoot it.
Sweet bow! Glad you'll be able to enjoy it in time.
Shelf is on the wrong side?
boy juniper sure makes a beautiful limb.
thanks everyone for the get wells!i couldnt help it and i had to shoot her last night,wow this bow is awesome!i put some cat whiskers on it and its super quiet.i had to ice my hand after so somehow i have to force myself not to shoot it until my hand is better,the rut is coming so i dont want to push my luck i would like to get out again before the gun hunters come out!someone wanted to see pics at full draw i will see if i can get some pics when my wife gets home.
That bow will go nice with my Robertson myrtle longbow. the draw is right, the weight is right and the handle is left which is also right. Want me to keep it warmed up for you? I scooped a deer with a motorcycle once myself, had deer hairs everywhere. We both survived.
Hope yours shoots as good as mine. I have a long bow and a recurve from Robertson. And about 6 other bows. When hunting season comes the other 6 are layed off till spring. God Luck with every thing.
Great looking bow, congrats! Hope you heal up soon and can shoot some arrows through it.
I'll own a Robertson longbow one day, come hell or high water.
Beautiful wood combination...PR
