    Looking to try out a few bows at the Recurve shoot

    I'm trying to get my hands on a few bows I'm wanting to choose between. Bisch has been nice enough to offer to bring a few this weekend (Sarrels longbows) but I'm also wanting to try out a Thunderstick MOAB, Morrison Dakota, and Toelke Whip around 50@28, anyone coming this weekend that will have one they could bring? I'm having to try and buy them used just to shoot them and it would be a lot easier to just try someone's out.

    Thanks,

    Zane

    Zane, just so you know....I will only be there on Saturday as I have to come back home for a prior commitment on Sunday. I'll be bringing my Sierra and my Superstition for you to try.

    See ya there,

      Sounds great. I'm looking forward to it. I am borrowing a Pearson recurve that looks like it's been through hell and back to shoot. I don't have a string at the moment that will work with it so my goal is to try and not embarrass myself at the shoot, that and for the bow not to blow up on me Any idea what time you'll hit the course? I won't be able to be out there for too long and I'd like to shoot with you guys.

        I will be out there EARLY (like 7:30 or so). I want to shoot 2 rounds on Sat and then have to drive back home.

          Early is great for me. You coming up by yourself or with others. Getting breakfast beforehand?

            I'll be there early Saturday also. I don't have one of them on your list but your welcome to shoot my Horne Superstick. It's 52@28.

              I was out a Mark's last week and shot his superstick that he made for the longbow shoot. I really like it, but of course it's the same design as my flintquest so I figured I would! How are you liking it? In the end it may be the bow I end up going with of nothing else blows it away.

                It's great. I've been shooting it pretty well. I like it so much I'm getting him to make the 1 piece longbow for me also. It's going to be The Stick instead of the Superstick just so it doesn't look exactly like my recurve. He and Sandy are awesome.

                  Hmmm, what is the difference between the stick and superstick? I don't guess we talked about that. Is it in the mold or just the wood choices?

                    The decorative swoop on the riser that divides the cocobolo and and bocote.

                          The shoot is in Ft Worth at the Cowtown bowmen range I believe. Jreyna - I believe Bisch is bringing his sierra and I'm looking forward to shooting it.

                            The Morrison Dakota is a great bow, try that one last if you can so all the others that have impressed you can be blown away.
