I went to a shoot about a month ago, there was a young man shooting one and it was dead quiet.  I got to check it out, quality was of course outstanding.  Nice mass weight not too heavy or light.

I have a LH 62 inch, 55# @ 28 3 piece and it is a great shooting bow.  I run my brace at  7 3/8 and it is nice and quiet.  

I have always had trouble shooting a longbow due to the grips.  I don't do well with a flat grip and even one with a locator gave me fits.  I shoot this bow as well as my recurves.  I draw close to 30 inches and this bow shoots 30 1/8 inch 2018s with 175 grain heads or 70-75 woodies with 160 grain heads very well.

Like D.P., I have always struggled with longbows and their grips but the exception is my Tip 3 pc longbow. My 3pc is 56#@28. Dead in the hand and has above average cast. Keep us posted when you get it dialed in.
