I have been shooting right hand/left eye dominate since 1967. I decided to try to shoot lefty just to see if I could do it.....I can, not well yet but it's coming along. It also balances my back muscles for better fitness. And the best part.....it's fun!

Ron, That's a beautiful bow, second time I've seen it in pictures.

Thanks to all, I saw you liked it on face-book Lee!

Ron....
I have been thinking lately that my next ASL will be a reverse/forward handle....
Is there really a big diff In the way they shoot compared to a standard bow...
And are specs. are pretty much the same, I like them around 45 & 29"
And I like the dual shelf our No shelf for the same reason as you..

My McBroom reverse handle seems to resist torque a bit better. It's as fast as my other bows, I shoot 8-11gpp. I have a 2 peice version. Mine has become my main bow, it's beautiful, quiet and smooth. I don't notice any hand shock either. You wouldn't be disappointed. My girlfriend has the first one Brian McBroom made. Soon as she shot it, she made me give him a check right then and there.

Mike G, I like my Hills and Northern Mists also. The reverse handle just seems to fit my style of shooting.......if I even have a style.....lol!

That brown glass is plain but elegant! Enjoy

McBroom can make them fancy.

Those are BEAUTIFUL bows guys. AZ, that bow looks amazing. I wish y'all would quit with all the pics....I do not need another bow, I do not need another bow, I do not need another bow lol.

I'm gonna have to give Brian a call after I feather back out from the St Jude Auction. I swore I wouldn't buy a bow this year...but y'all are really twisting my arm. And there isn't an ASL on my bowrack.

ron w · June 11, 2016, 10:15:00 AM

Maybe.........Can't decide which one to shoot but I shot this one yesterday and I done good.

akbowbender · June 11, 2016, 11:46:00 AM

Very nice, Ron. My bow aquisitions have come to a halt, but if I start up again, I'd like to get one similar to yours.

ron w · June 12, 2016, 01:12:00 PM

Took the new bow to a 3-D today.......lots of good comments and I shot it pretty good. Several said, wow that is really quiet......it is!

Stone Knife · June 12, 2016, 03:09:00 PM

Nice bow Ron.

Jack Hoyt 75 · June 12, 2016, 04:02:00 PM

Oh boy! Nice bow there. How many bows you got now ron w?? I am addicted too

ron w · June 12, 2016, 09:55:00 PM

Somewhere just over 40 Jack......I try to cut back now and then but it just don't seem to happen.

ron w · June 23, 2016, 02:02:00 PM

So, I have had this bow now for a few weeks, been shooting, tuning and just getting friendly with it. Been to a 3-D and just learning how to handle this unique bow. Well it's easy,

put the heal of your hand into it and just shoot, smooth, silent and very forgiving. Just a pleasure to fling arrows down range......I need to take it stumping now.
