Title: Mrs Clause was good to me!!
Post by: Txnrog on December 31, 2010, 06:25:00 PM
Wife got me a new Spirit Recurve for our first Christmas together! Know there was some reason I put a ring o that finger   ;)

48# @ 28, so about 52@ my draw. Crazy looking cocobolo w/ alot of sapwood inclusions, Canary wood veneers, and looks like a black fiberglass or phoelenic core. Shoots great, and have already broken a few arrows.      (http://www.rmsgear.com/Images/shop_bows_2010/4352.JPG)

Good for you!
Bryan Holley of Spirit Bows builds a good one.
I owned a Spirit Longbow for a while, very nice.

Thanks for the pics, I'm sure it shoots good!

Oh, and by the way, Bryan incorporates a uni-directional fiberglass limb core...much as BW does.
Adds a lot of limb stability and toughness, imo.

Nice looking bow. Really like the way opposite sides of the riser look like negative images of the other rather than mirror images.
Wouldn't mind finding one like that myself.
It's a keeper. (And I'd hang on to the wife too!)

Great looking bow!  I bought a 48# Spirit longbow in August and love it.  Mine is cocobolo and bocote.  You will really enjoy this bow.  They shoot fast and are super quiet.  Happy New Year from Iowa!

Congratulations on both the wonderful wife and bow!

Thanks to one our sponsors, rmsgear.com( a great family owned and operated business,Tommy just looks like he runs it)...lol Anyone can find more of Bryan Holley's Spirit bows.


Mr Holley makes excellent shooting bows that are also easy on the eyes.(personal experience speaking as I have owned and shot a few.)

I couldn't feel more validated about my personal opinion of Spirit bows than when reading your satisfaction with yours.

Thanks for sharing!

Happy New Year and God bless
Mudd
