Green McBroom 58 Mojo
« on: January 13, 2016, 10:26:00 PM »
Looking for delivery of my new McBroom 58 Mojo any day now. Green glass, bubinga riser, white tips, dark bamboo cores, 70# @ 29". Brian was gracious enough to provide a few pics before shipping. Working with Brian was an absolute pleasure from the time I ordered in November. Do to the draw weight Brian suggested a 0.20 glass I-beam in the center of the riser, just to make him feel more comfortable. You can barely see the I-beam in the first photo. Once I get to shooting and tuning, I'll repost with more photos and my thoughts.

It's interesting to see how draw weights have come down over the past ten years or so. Ten or fifteen years ago a low 40#s was a woman's bow. Now it's an average man's bow. 70# is not that high, really. I still shoot 60# comfortably in some of my bows, 57# being average.

Very nice looking bow. Nothing like an uncluttered traditional bow. My other favorites with this clean look are most Hill bows and anything from Great Northern.

Please describe how it shoots. I imagine it's plenty fast. Is it quiet? Smooth drawing?

Ghost Dog... yes sir, I certainly will give a discription on how it shoots in a few days. I want to get a little more familiar with the bow so as not to come off "gushing" do to its newness. I can say that tuning was a snap and the more I shoot the Mojo, the more I am noticing some subtle differences from other bows that I have shot.
