Who makes D bows like the Mohawk, Super D etc. Looking at both of these and curious if there are others. Opinions of these 2 welcome. :campfire:
Great Plains and Fox archery make nice looking ones.
You might give the "Flatliner" a second look. I custom shape the grip on these to what ever specs you like from high wrist with a thumb ledge to a low wrist traditional long bow grip with a leather wrap....

This one is called the "Big Foot Stealth" the glass runs down from the top limb to just above the shelf & has a more traditional style grip. These i do in straight, Dish, or locator style grip only.

The stealth model comes stock with a harmonic damping system that is built into the riser & adds a bit more mass weight in the riser and eliminates any residual vibration that is common in these small riser bows. it's a very nice shooting bow. too.
I like the looks of that stealth, Kirk!
The handle just sucks me in!

Mike Treadway makes a nice D shape bow, you can get it in 1 or 2 piece

I have a Back to basics Traditional longbow from Mike......it is excellent. I had a Super "D" and still have a Mohawk, both very good longbows.
Liberty x3!
Many good options in this category. Most any of the current "Hill style" bows are pretty nice. I'm partial to the mild R/D designs like the Mohawk. My favorites are Robertson, Liberty Contender and GN Critter Gitter. There are many more that I haven't spent much time with that are favorites of others.
I think McBroom is the best deal right now!
Can't go wrong with a Treadway Traditional !!! One heck of a guy building them too.
