One for the Toelke fans.
« on: February 25, 2016, 08:43:00 PM »
Anyone ever seen one like this?  It's like an illegitimate step child of a Chinook and a kestrel.  Says it's a 58" recurve but string suggest it's a 56" bow.  Got home after dark, shooting review will have to wait, but it gets back to 30" with no issue.  Dan said it's a design he built on the way to the chinook.  Thought you all might find it interesting.

You have to be quick to beat me to a good deal on a Toelke!

Think I saw that bow on FB.  I wondered what it was.  Glad you got it.  Enjoy!

Feels to me more like a kestrel then a chinook.  Shoots well, but I already have two Chinooks in the same weight, probably move this one to the next guy.  Look for it soon in the classifieds.  :)

Looks good, but that is a pretty slim amount of info and picts.  Looking forward to your review.

You want more pictures?  It's quiet, fast, and smooth, but it's a Toelke so you already knew that.  If I didn't already have two Chinooks in the weight range it would probably stay.

I've found it's pretty common for Dan's recurves to run a little shorter AMO on string length.

Shorter or longer, I usually need an extra 1/2"?  This one is running about a 53" string, that's pretty short for a 58" bow.
