Title: Mohawk longbows in Central Florida ?
Post by: Tradcat on January 02, 2013, 08:44:00 PM
Dear fellow Tradgangers...I'd like to shoot a Mohawk before I decide which length and weight will best suit me...my question is this: is there anyone in the Central Florida area willing to meet me somewhere so I can sling a few arrows with your Mohawk bow to help me make my decision ? Thanks

Go to the TBOF charity shoot in January and the championship shoot in March.  You'll meet a bunch of trad shooters and should be able to try a few bows out.  Details are on the Florida forum here.

Im a TBOF member and plan on attending the charity shoot this month...specifically, I was hoping that someone in the central florida area might own a Mohawk Longbow that might let me shoot a few arrows through it to assist me in making a buying decision from Vince at Mohawk... Please, ANYONE ?

Steve, I know what you mean.  I have ordered some new bows long distance without shooting them first.

But as for Mohawks, I live only 40 minutes from Vince (Mohawk bows).  When I ordered my Sparrowhawk, I was able to shoot some bows first.  Vince built a 66" Sparrowhawk for me, 50 # @ 28".  I love the length.  The draw is butter smooth, and the bow is very accurate.

And Vince is as fine a guy as you will meet.

Good luck,
Rob
