Title: Rivers Edge Vortex
Post by: Alexander Traditional on November 25, 2012, 04:56:00 PM
I was just wondering if any of you had any experience with Rivers Edge bows?  There is one in the classifieds,and it looks very nice to me,but no one has commented on it.

I have killed more trad animals with my vortex than any other bow of mine. Mine is a takedown with dymondwood riser and bowbolt which add weight for stability. Great shooting bow. Would live to try the new vortex II.

I was able to shoot a few RER's at the Waterloo, Iowa Expo this spring and was completely shocked and how dead-on accurate they were.  The targets were only several yards away, but I was shooting three arrows in half dollar groups, with no tuning or anything!!  Very nice shooters, quiet, and great finish.  It was a dang good thing I didn't have that kind of cash on me or I would have left with one.  Sue was giving me grief because I purposely left the checkbook in the car!!  If you like it, go with it, they are excellent bows!  Kevin and Sue were great to talk to also!
