Title: sky longhorn takedown and toelke whip takedown
Post by: Fastltz on December 05, 2014, 02:07:00 PM
Kinda down to these two bows. First anyone have experience with either? Headed to kzoo this year and was going to try them then but I hear sky will not be there this year. Bummer. So im leaning towards the sky but want some feedback.

Nothing against Toelke because I'm sure he makes a fine bow but I would go with Sky. The Belcher and Hoyt combined pedigree is hard to discount. One of the bigger archery shops carrys the Sky line of bows and they are first class, finished much better than my Hoyt.

I'm the opposite. I don't know a thing about Sky but I know Toelke makes one of the finest bows in the business.

2pc Whip is an awesome archery device.  Flat out a shooter.  You can't go wrong.  I'm sure you can't go wrong with a Sky bow either.  You have two great choices.  Go with whichever you like the look and feel of best, go with your gut and don't look back.

I've shot both bows not but only the Sky in the take down.

Both are great bows and equally nice.  You can't go wrong with either so decide which one you like better and go with it.  

Or you could do the most sensible thing and get both.

If I'm right they both use the same method of takedown...how is that for sturdy and ease of use?

Toelke whip would be my first choice.

The Toelke has a bit more style to the bow, more exotic, fancy woods. But for my hard earned dollars my Sky bow performs as well as I prefer to.

It was solid and there was noticeable difference from the 1 piece that I shot back to back.  Very easy to take down and put together.

I have a takedown Whip and I really like it.

Go with Whip...no doubt in my mind.
