Still haven't received my Chek Mate Beaver Creek yet, but can get a good deal on a Super Kodiak (new, 2011). Help me decide! Thanks!

why haven't you gotten your Chek mate? Is the Chek mate a longbow?

Not sure! Ordered it from Gitrdone about 2 months ago. Waiting for Dennis to call me back. I know he works away from home,and can be hard to reach. Don't want to back out and leave him in a hard place. The Beaver Creek is a long bow.

I'm a fan of those longbows myself. I have been shooting a Chek mate falcon and was really impressed. The falcon is a recurve. The Bow actually changed my opinion on recurves. Bear obviously makes a great bow that's undeniable, but you are getting yourself an off the rack bow. Please take my opinion with a grain of salt because I'm sold on longbows over a recurve. Also if you ordered the bow and it didn't come of the shelf its likely being finished for you. I just spent a very painful few weeks waiting on a new bow to be finished. Believe me the wait is worth it to get your special bow that you have been waiting for.

PS of all the people I have met in the trad world Dennis is the last person who should be left hanging. If your waiting on your bow believe he is too and you can bet he is as excited for it to get here as your are. It wont be long, imagine waiting 18 months ouch I could barely handle 1.5 months hahahaha

Forward me a pm and we can chat about bows more often.
