Ok, I am a recurve guy and it takes a lot for me to get excited about a one piece longbow, I just normally cannot shoot them worth a hoot. I shoot the threepiece longbows like the Schafer Silvertip and Brackenbury Non-typical and Caribow Silverfox pretty well but just not like I can shoot my recurves, therefore I do not keep them and sell them or trade them for one of my preferred recurves, Silvertip,Brackenbury Quest or Blacktail. well that has changed with this new bow.
I saw this bow on Abe's stock page and was drawn to it for some reason so I pulled the trigger and bought it. It arrived a couple of days ago and I finally was able to shoot her yesterday for a bit. I was amazed,smooth as silk, hard hitting, fast and puts the arrow right where I am looking, as a matter of fact the very first arrow out of her was a bull at 25 yards. I shot for about an hour and just could not put her down. To say I am pleased is an understatement, she is right there with my Silvertip and Brackenbury Quest recurves in performance and she will not be going anywhere. Hope to kill a pig with her here on Guam very soon, perfect size for my blind.
Do yourself a favor, give one of Abe's bows a look, you will not be disappointed, I have owned several of his Taiga recurves and Silverfox longbows as well as a couple of his Featherhorn longbows and they are all top performers.

Danny, A beautiful bow and from what you say, equal in performance to looks. What are the specs and particulars? Oh and the best of luck to you with it.

Man Danny, that is a beauty. Abe not only makes some great shooting bows, they are also great performers.
