I am looking for a longbow with the following.
1. Under 62" 2. Take down (2 piece only)
3. Lower wrist grip 4. forward handle
What fits these requirements?

I think you can get a MOAB in that configuration. I can't think of a better bow. As fast as they come, beautiful, and from a great guy!

Shrew, Centaur, Holm-Made, Sarrels...to name a few...good luck....

I like the Toelke Whip as well, but it isn't a forward handle. What is your draw length?

I have a 28 inch draw length.

60" Whip would work for you with a bow bolt. If you don't like the thumbrest you could get a Classic, same bow without the thumbrest. Of course you could go shorter with a Shrew. Tons of bows out there, you'll have a bunch of choices with a 28" draw length as well. Good luck...Mike

With those features a Shrew with a Bow Bolt would be ideal -- other than the year wait.

Griffin and Treadway bows are worth looking into also.

I have a St. Charles Pacific Yew that matches all those specs except for the forward handle. Check out Jay's bows. Mine is very smooth, and beautiful to boot.

If possible I would like a non sleeve take-down. Seems like there are better options out these days.

Oops! Wrong link. Scroll back to Tippits post from earlier today. Great pics of just what you are looking for.

I am now on the list for a Griffin "Gnat"

58" or 60" thunder child with carbon and glass socket. Jam up bow. Fast, Quiet, Oh yeah beautiful too. All that and have it in 6 to 10 weeks.
What could be better, BigJim

OK Big Jim, lets see some pics of the Thunder Child...it sounds cool

sswv · « **Reply #17 on:** January 22, 2009, 11:42:00 PM »

yep! we need more info on the "thunder child".

BigJim · « **Reply #18 on:** February 04, 2009, 06:47:00 AM »

Will try to list some pictures by this weekend. I have one in the spray room now and a couple in the works.

thanks, BigJim

I've got a 58" ACS-CX, which is a great bow. Bob Lee makes TD longbows down to 54"! :eek:
