Title: 2011 Lost Creek Takedown Longbow
Post by: Lost Creek Bows on April 23, 2011, 07:42:00 PM
I have some picture of the New Lost Creek Takedown Longbow. This is the first Prototype. I have my second one started. I'm still about 2 weeks out before I start to take orders on the takedown. This bow is 60" 47@ 28"  I was just showing the gang the progress on the Lost Creek T/D. Thanks Chad

What is the shortest T/D you will make?

You can PM me or tell everyone who might be interested

That is sweet! Very nice looking bow Chad! Hows it shoot compared to the one piece?

Thanks!

Chad, I'm thinking of a 62" model with the shorter riser. Please let me know when your ready to take orders. Would you install quiver bushings in the riser?

Looks great Chad. How does it shoot? Is it much heavier than the one piece?

Oh my gosh. This is what I've been waiting for.
Chad, how short can I go with my 29 draw?

I'm thrilled that you chose the two bolt design!
Super tough as all you Bob Lee fans know.

I assume all the normal woods are available.

What's her name?

The 60" is good to 29" with a 15" handle like this one has. The shortest T/D will be 58" bow good to 28". Yes Kenny I'm a Lefty

It shoots great very fast and dead in the hand. This bow weighs 1 lb and 14 oz just shy of 2 lbs. This bow is the "Legacy" T/D

So the 15" riser is the shortest you'll offer?

Ok, I know I'm pushing it but....any chance of getting recurve limbs on that riser?

Sorry Chad I just want my end-all bow to come from you.

Not a recurve as of now, maybe next year. I can go shorter on the riser. I just hate the small sight window on the 13" risers.

Chad, as always you aim to please!

Your bows are the best. I'm really excited that you are offering a take down. It's gonna be a hit.

I cant my bow quite a bit so maybe the 13 in riser will be fine. My next purchase for sure!

Thanks for your timely replies and for offering such  awesome bows!

Chad,
You are going to get me in big trouble. Oh well, sometimes it is worth it.

Nice looking bow, and if it shoots anything like the Legend I just traded for, I want in line to order.

The takedown bow will be ready for the public to order in two weeks. And yes, this baby shoots great.

About time Chad. This is going to be a great bow and I think a very popular one at that. You really build a terrific bow.
