Yep, they're superb longbows indeed. Another 1pc being built for me as I type. And later this year, another TD to order out. To each their own. :saywhat: :D

Well Brother Dean I hate to say it but.... I Told You So! Vince made you a Beaut! Those Dirty Boo Limbs are awesome Bud. The more you shoot her the better she gets.You'll see. Enjoy!

Are those bows pure wood lams or are they under clear glass?
-
Have you got a web page for them?

I spoke to Vince yesterday.Vince does have some in stock bows for those that are interested.Better yet give him a call. He likes to talk bows.
-
Nice bow, What arrows are you shooting out of her :wavey:
-
FULL LENGTH 5575 WITH A 100 GRAIN BRASS INSERT AND 145 TIP!!!FLY LIKE BULLETS

Dean-
Any chance you can take a closer pic of the bamboo on the limbs. They look great. Gotta love them Mohawks!!
Thanks.

frasseter my 'Hawk is 46#s at my 27" draw. I shoot 35/55 Gold Tips cut to 27 3/4's with 250 grains up front. I just had a dozen tapered cedars made up 50/55#s cut to 28"s with 125 grains up front. I thought I would never shoot any thing but carbons from now on but this bow loves those cedars! All my arrows by the way have 4 -4" feathers on them. Longbows really shoot a four fletch arrow great. Hey yeh DEAN more pictures of that riser too!
-
i cant wait to get money saved for mine

Here (http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z318/arrow39/DSCN0555.jpg)is my 47#. Cocobo riser with bamboo limbs.

Ken, that's a beaut!!! (http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w280/tomblvd/203_0313.jpg) (http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w280/tomblvd/203_0314.jpg)Here's mine again and what she can do.
-
Man, those slim contoured handles are a dream to hold and shoot. They're worth the price of admission alone. :)
-
I shoot a Northwind Gem longbow, looks like a very similar profile. Thats what I like, will have to give serious though as to getting a Mohawk. Mike
-
I'm thinkin' about one myself. Good lookin' bows for sure. How are they for shooters?

Do a subject search for Mohawk. Ain't no one yet has complained about Mohawks. Ultimately yer gonna need to decide for yerself either by shootin' one or takin' a leap o' faith. In any event, ring up Vince, he may be able to help ya make a decision.
-
Trust me,, they "SHOOT" as good as they look, and feel GREAT !! Vince Migliorato is one heck-uv-a Bowyer, Like I've said many o time,, You can pay ALOT more,, but you AINT gettin more, AWESOME Mild R/D Longbows !!! And no,, I aint gettin paid for this......
-
I looked at his website and the throat of his bows seem pretty thin. I have fairly good sized hands. Are those pictures foolin' me, or does the grip take some time to get the feel of it?

These are custom longbows - call or email Vince and let him know what ya require.
-
You're right Rob, I'll give him a shout. Thanks.
-
Thanks very much for the positve feedback, means a lot! Shawn you should see yours the end of the week. Adam, nicely said....the checks in the mail! :thumbsup:
-
The quietest bow I have never heard. Plenty fast and shock free.
Irish Archer, I have some very big hands and love the small grip on these longbows. I am sure Vince could make you a bigger grip if needed, but you might be suprised how well a small grip works imho.
I think it would be hard to find a better d-shaped longbow. And even harder to find a better guy than Vince. He is right there at the top of the heap!
-
See that guys mine is coming this week or next. :)
-
wow!!! now thats a real nice bow for sure
-
Which One? They're all nice!! Hey I forgot to welcome you new owners to The Mohawk Tribe!!!
-
Does anyone know what is the recommended Brace Height on these?
-
Recommended brace is 6 1/2 to 6 3/4. Vince told me you could take it down to about 6 1/4 if you like to get a little more speed but you'll get a little more noise too. Mine settled in a touch below 6 1/2.
-
Thanks
-
Nice lookin bow! How does it shoot
-
Never shot one but sure do love the looks! "Real longbow" curves and handle and everything-nice!

Nock an arrow on the string, pull the string back a bit, let go of the string. :D
OK, seriously now ... that's a very subjective question and my answer is easy - it's the best shootin' mild r/d longbow I've ever had the pleasure to pull string on. How's that? :D
-
looks like I have one coming in the near future, just got off the phone with vince, great guy to talk to, gonna get it as soon as I save up for it
