I have a Lost Creek Longbow on order.

Very surprised at how well this little 56 incher shot, the lack of hand shock, and how quiet it was.

Have you considered the longbow instead of the recurve?  I haven't shot their recurve.

Ditto to what Terry said. Chads longbows are the tops & i'm sure his recurves are as well. You can not lose with a Lost Creek.
Good luck

Same here, love mine.

However, I've heard that Chad's recurves have even more performance than his longbows, and my longbow really spits an arrow.

Can't go wrong with either one!

it means "Farewell" M(andoralen) ^^

"++" is for the french "à plus",  the appropriate translation is probably "See you".

hopes it helps.

Chads bows are top notch. I have a couple and love them both dearly. I would lean towards the longbow as that seems to be his main thing but his recurves are probably just as awesome. They are about the best bow I could imagine for the money and Chad himself is excellent to deal with.

Here's my personal results...

You should probably give Chad a call and talk a bit with him. He's got some nice lookin in stock bows for sale right now...

Great. Thanks once again K, for posting pics of your backyard range. Now I get to go home and shoot in my garage.

I'm not envious, I'm not envious.....

Thanks for what you guys have posted thus far...Terry I'm not lookin into Lost creek longbows because longbows is all I've shot for awhile and wanting to go to the practicalitly of a smaller bow and different style such as in a curve...thank you all for the information and pic.

I would just order it a couple lbs lighter than normal and it would be perfect as there is that slight pre-load in early draw compared to some recurves on the market and the "Lost Creek" longbow. Feel free to call with any questions, 641-660-1070. Thanks Chad

Can't speak for his recurves, but his longbow is great. My 60" longbow is one of my all time favorites but it is a few pounds too heavy for me so I don't shoot it that much anymore. Been thinking about his 56" longbow for use out of my blind. I don't think you could go wrong with one of Chad's bows.
