Drew
What was your overall impressions, performance, shootability and comparisons to anything that you shoot? I am really interested in getting a non bias review and thoughts on these limbs. Is it something you would want to shoot all the time or just tinker with? Be honest and lets have it.... lol
Thanks
Dave

Dave for my personal taste I don't usually shoot three piece , the extra weight on the end of my arm is hard on my shoulder .
This bow is very comfortable to shoot no hand shock very smooth and quiet . I love the grip , fits the hand nicely and very repeetable hand placement.
Fit and finish is as good as I have seen on many bows and way better than others. The design is very good and the limbs unfold to help with performance and smoothness.
I should have asked about shooting this bow with my long draw but figured if it couldn't take it we would find out right quick. It handled it with no trouble at all .
Overall It was a pleasure to shoot and performance was very good. I think this bow has more cast than some of my regular shooters. I shoot very heavy arrows ( 800 gr ) for such a low poundage bow but it handled them well.
Thanks again Dave

That is what I am looking for and possibly down the way a one piece in the midst. It has been on my mind awhile. I am starting a new job soon and this will be the weekend filler fun.
Thanks for the review and looking forward to the new adventures that await.
Thanks and good shooting,
Dave

Great shooting static, what town is it at for Christmas. Santa look out for your reindeer !!

S. Brant Osborn · December 21, 2012, 01:22:00 AM

I now have it here in the metropolis area of Hunter Louisiana. It made the trip safely and Ol Rudolph and his pals are safe. We are raised to hold some things sacred here. Thatgoes for the Easter Bunny too. All else are fair game.

If shooting tomorrow goes as wel as today it will see some time in the woods. I'll keep you all up to date. Thanks to Dave for the opportunity. So Far I will same its beautifull, smooth and quiet with my 3 finger undershooting style. Keeping arrows close together in the target.

Dave, has anyone taken game with this new design yet?
Brant

Commanche static recurve by curtis byrd. Someone sell me. A lefty. What agreat shooting bow. The 8th dwarf had one for a while curtis byrd was a master bowyer.

HMlongbow · December 21, 2012, 08:34:00 AM

Brant
As of now I don't think anyone has taken a critter with it yet!!!!
So by all means take it to the woods and see what lurks in front of the arrow.
Good shooting

Kyle Lancaster · January 03, 2013, 08:45:00 AM

I can't wait to try this bow out. Who's next after Brant?

Longbowlogan · January 03, 2013, 08:58:00 AM

I just recieved this bow yesterday! I haven't been able to shoot it much yet, I shot about 10 arrows through it. First thing that caught my eye on the bow was the limbs, they look great! there's no handshock that I noticed at the shot and it's very quiet. It's about 8 lbs lighter than I'm use too so it feels very smooth. Hope to shoot it some more in the next couple of days!

HMlongbow · January 03, 2013, 01:44:00 PM

Good to hear logan that the bow arrived safely. Looking forward to your review.
Good shooting
