Do Not Shoot This Longbow in Dry Conditions !

It Will Start A Fire !

I recently got this new to me Harrier GL longbow. I had a chance to shoot it a bit yesterday and am pleasantly surprised at it's performance. With it's D shape, it is faster than my ACS ( which is 4 # heavier ).

It is 68" , weighing 42 # @ 28 in. The riser is Ebony with horn accents. The limbs are carbon with no glass. The grip is perfect for me.

That's a good looking bow. It does have a good looking grip.

Awesome shape. Got one of those iconic D shapes reminds me a lot of my 21st. Good stuff.

Actually it looks like my 21st and a Shrew had a baby. Bet its a real shooter. Gotta try one now

I'm not a hybrid man myself, but that looks hot. Looks like a well crafted bow. Congrats..... Enjoy

It's a beauty and I bet it's smooth too!

Do you have any pics of the un braced bow profile? Also what is your brace height right now and is it what Border recommended or a bit lower?

Beautiful bow, I really like it , God bless, Steve

D shaped? I think it looks like a perfect triangle. Love the strung profile and overall looks. Is it forgiving to shoot as your ACS?

Indeed it 'technically' could be called a triangle, but for all intents and purposes it could be called a D shape. It's a damn sexy shape either way IMHO.

real nice bow

Thanks for the compliments guys.

I am still playing with the tune of the bow but it is a real tack driver. I don't really know what "forgiving" means. So far , I seem to shoot it a little better than my ACS. The draw is very smooth.

Right now I have the brace height set at 6 3/4 in. The recommended brace height is 6 to 7 in. The unbraced shape is almost strait. I will try and get some pictures.
