I have two Classics and a Shelton, but have never shot a Whisper.  Is the Whisper that much quieter?  The Classic is a very quiet shooter and the Shelton even more so.

I have a Whisper and a Classic that are within 2lbs in draw weight, and I don’t notice any difference in the sound

I don’t really have a preference.  I’ve had the Whisper the longest, so I’ve shot it more and may be more accurate with it, but the Classic just looks like a longbow should look!

I'd like to try a reverse handle some day.

If you'll notice in above picture the grip is neither reverse or normal, sort of in between. Anyone know for sure if this was one of Howards bows?

Also note that the string Howard appears to be using is an endless.

Good eye Kelly.  I’ve  had about 6 other longbows, two or three were reverse handles. This Liberty has my favorite grip by far.  I never question if my hand placement is right and for sure the most comfortable, of the 66”-68” longbows I’ve had.
