These are some bad pics of the Huron. Its Steves Flatbow Model.  When I find the camera my wife hid im going to take some new pics of the bow.

The Huron has Steves straight grip, and I must say that if all straight grips are like his I am a convert. I absolutly love it, my hand just feels so comfortable on it. His locator is very slight but it makes me want to roll my wrist in just a bit, instead of holding the "side" of the handle.  I will have a bow made with the oval straight grip he makes.

Nice bows! I agree on the straight grip, it just feels so good in the hand. I've had straight grip bows, but not in the oval shape like this one. I like it.

The craftsmanship is so perfect I enjoy just holding it and marveling over her. The narrow, thick, slightly trapped limbs give the bow amazing stability. The limbs look extra sleek without tip overlays.

Since it obvious you don't really like the now Danny, I'll buy it off you!!!!! It's right up my ally.!!!!

 Seriously though, I was bidding against you on **** for that one. I'm low on funds by funds right now due to 2 new NM in a month or I would have givin you a run for it.  
   I'm glad a Ganger got it.

I am impressed with the looks of the Shelton and Superior. Would like to try one some day.

My Shelton is all Yew, with Bolivian rosewood riser and brown glass back and belly.  Man she is sweet, it has a slight dish grip.  It is my favorite grip of all.  I am amazed at the speed and lack of shock with this bow ... the Shelton is a real winner.  You have a beautiful bow there, good on ya!
