Title: Found my Holy Grail bow!!!!
Post by: Bob Abeln on April 02, 2012, 05:57:00 PM
Got my new used 62" RER Arroyo 43#@28" today from Kevin. Tiger Ebony riser and limbs. This bow shoots incredible. Super smooth, great grip, very fast and quiet. The TerMaats are a joy to buy from. If there is a better recurve out there i haven't found it. Got to go shoot it some more.

No pics....Didn't Happen.    :bigsmyl:  

RER's are great shooters for sure.  Kevin is a great guy to deal with also.

Best of luck with it.  Now post some pics!!!

Those Arroyos are nice, quietest recurve I've shot.

It was a trade in bow. Kevin reworked the grip and refinished the whole bow. Looks like new. Don't know how to post pics, Sorry

Bob, congrats. Glad you found each other, Kevin builds a superb bow, quick, silent and pretty.

I also just picked up an RER Arroyo today, from member "Long Bow".  This one is also Tiger Ebony, 58" 51@28.  As I only got it today, I don't know if I can call it my grail bow...YET...but what a great bow that fits me like a glove and SMOKES an arrow!

I've never shot their recurves, but I do own 2 of their LX longbows, which is the 3 piece takedown model. Yes, super people and great bows! You made a very good choice.
