Has anybody shot any of the new Robertson Hybrids? Whatdo you think?
I'm interested to hear as well. I had a post recently and there weren't many responses about the Robertson's. They look great I'd like to hear what people think about them.
I shot a Quick Styk 2 years ago in Kzoo, it was a great bow. If I wasnt strapped I'd buy one no doubt. Never shot a Robertson that I didnt like for that matter.

I have two older Robertson's one is their first generation long bow and the other is a perigrine recurve. Both are excellent bows and harvested a lot a game, but as I got older the draw weight was too much. I recently got one of their hybrid Quick Styks, 62" and 55# @ 28" and it is just an outstanding bow. It's got yew laminations over a bamboo core with a bocate riser. The wood they use is absolutely beautiful and the bow is smooth and fast. The short length makes it easy to handle in my Double Bull blind. I couldn't be happier with the bow. They're pricey but I think you get what you pay for. I like it so much that I would like to buy another for a back up. In short I think the new design is a great improvement.
They are excellent shooting bows and the craftsmanship, like always, is impeccable.
Dick and Yote are two of the worlds most amazing bowyers, and just plain cool dudes.
I shot a couple of their hybrid LBs at the Traditional Bowhunters of Montana shoot. I'm not a longbow guy. That's all I can say. I can't get along with a bow that has a BH under 7 1/2 inches.
Dick did tell me they're as fast as his recurves, and I believe that.
I'm having a hard time right now deciding if my next recurve is going to be a Robertson Stykbow or another Silvertip
I purchased a ravenstyk 2 yrs ago.It is extremely smooth,shoots where I/m looking and is the most beautiful bow I own.It is also very quiet.Dick is currently making me another set of raven styk limbs for one of my other fatalstyks. I've taken 2 antelope and 2 big whitetail bucks in new york with it and couldn't be more pleased with it.You won't go wrong with a robertson ,there are 9 on my bow rack, my wife just smiles and shakes her head.
