Some dealers may have a few on hand, but when those are gone that's it. I have as good a relationship with the bowyer as anyone, and he told me that he will not take any more orders for the Hunter 56".
Gator, I haven't shot the BC longbow, but I have some coming. Dennis from Git-r-Done has, or will get to shoot one this weekend (I forget which), and I figure he'll post a review. I think Pete Ward is also scheduled to do a review.
It's a radical deflex/reflex when unstrung, but when strung the profile is very similar to the Crusader that Chek-Mate offers. Marc said he is very happy with it, and suprised at how long a draw it will handle. He was shooting a 56" or 58" a few days ago and it handled a 29" draw with no stack. He's had this design bouncing around in his head for several years, and is finally getting to make a go of it.
Very few bowyers have anywhere near the experience Marc has (he's built well over 12,000 bows), and I don't think there are any that enjoy what they do more than he does. I expect this one to be a winner all-around.
