Just looking for advice on comparing the two with each other.

Thanks for all your help,

I don't have the Traditional Longbow but I do have a couple of Bushbows and they are great shooters. The Bushbow is Jerry's and Rick's favorite.

I bought a Critter Gitter earlier this year and have no doubt this bow will be my hunting companion for as many years as I can shoot it.  That being said, when I ordered mine, I asked Jerry why he used a Bush Bow.  He said it's a very, very forgiving bow and he can shoot a wide range of various spined arrows with it.  My buddy ordered the Bush Bow at the same time I ordered my Critter Gitter and he's really happy with it.  The only reason I didn't get a Bush Bow is because I don't care for the looks of the wider limbs and prefer a narrow limbed longbow.

All of that being said...you can't go wrong with any Great Northern bow.  Jerry makes a fantastic bow and his craftsmanship is second to none.

The Traditonal is a narrow,straight-limbed longbow with a bit of backset.  The bushbow is a mild R/D flatbow, with no tip overlays.  At least for me, a Jackknifed Bushbow is the ultimate hunting bow...

Love my jackknifed Critter Gitter. Best and simplest design out there. Shoot one, you'll be hooked!

Jack knife Cutter Gitter Sp. Has to be my fave bow to shoot at the moment.
