Title: TimberGhost 3 piece LB......incredible!...Pics added!!
Post by: Hubi on October 23, 2013, 08:14:00 AM
Hi Gang,

I have received 3 weeks ago a used TimberGhost 3 piece build by Kent Roberts ( Sponsor here on TradGang). Thanks Ed for the possibility to buy this great bow here on TrandGang!
Ed sent the bow back to Kent to  reduce a few pounds. I have to say, Kent is a top fellow with a awesome customer service. Although he is very busy he reduced and finished the bow in a few days and sent it to me.  Thanks Ed & Kent for the trouble-free business!

About the bow, it is a 60" 50@30" 3 piece LB with desert camo actionwood / Phenolic riser and the limbs are  carbon on the back and carbon/ Actionboo core with desert camo actionwood veneers  on the belly.
I cannot say enough good things about this bow! Guru has posted a great review about the Timberghost 3 piece LB   http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=130298  
I agree 100% with Guru`s review! This  short power house is an awesome performing bow. It is super smooth, point able  and very accurate  with a flat trajectory. No stacking or finger pinch at my 30" draw, it is very quit, NO hand shock.... . and FAAASSSSTTTT!!!!
This bow is all you can get and more. I shoot it now about 3 week but the feeling is I own it since years....very easy to handle.
The grip is not custom made  for me but it feels very comfortable .
The workman ship is TOP.
This bow design has one of the best overall performance that I ever have try.
Not to mention that the triple Carbon version is faster and smoother draw.....

But now the incredible of the story:
I have had last Sunday a 3d shooting and decided to use my TimberGost . This Tournament was very tricky with a fierce competition in the Longbow class.
Long story shortened..........I have placed " 1."....... Unbelievable ....... with a bow that I own 3 weeks now ....That say a lot!!

Again, special thanks to Kent & Ed to get this great bow     :thumbsup:    !

I can highly recommend this bow. You will be not disappointed!!

Hubert

PS I will try to post pics later....

Looks like a nice bow! Can't wait to test-drive this one!

Btw, I succeeded in installing Photobucket on my IPad and send it from there. Works even easier then from a Windows PC!

Kind regards Brother!       :D

As soon as I read the Guru report mentioned earlier, I sent Kent a deposit, and am patiently waiting.
I'm not sure what kind of woods I will have him use, so it would be helpful if others could post pictures to help me decide. Any bow riser is fine, just so I could get some ideas.
It sounds like Kent's bows are smooth, short and accurate without any noise or hand shock.
Not sure what else one would want in a bow.
