New Trinity Longbow - I am speechless!
« on: January 27, 2014, 05:38:00 PM »
Back in July of last year I had a wild hair and after reviewing the ads in Traditional Bowhunter I decided to call Edward Boyd of Trinity Longbow and talk about the chance to discuss a possible trade for a custom longbow. Needless to say Edward and I became instant friends. Honestly it feels like we have been friends for decades. Over the last several months I helped Edward with his website  www.TrinityLongbows.com.  The process of helping with his website and working out the details of a new bow has been seamless and rewarding. Last Thursday I had a long narrow box waiting when I got home. As I opened the box I was literally blown away. The detail and craftsmanship speaks for itself. After analyzing the bow  had to shoot it. I went into my basement, strung the bow and tied a quick string nock and was delighted as the arrows shot with great speed and unbelievable grace. The handle has cocobolo on the outside and myrtle in the center. The limbs are footed with tiger myrtle and cocobolo. All complete with herringbone accents strips. The Trinity Falcon is a bow that I highly recommend and will be my hunting companion for years to come. The best part is that I now have two new friends, Edward and the Falcon!

It reminds me of my Blacktail Elite 'curve. I was hoping to shoot a few of the Trinity bows at Kzoo this weekend, but the dang weather ruined it. Peace!

Thanks for all the kind words! I know Edward does have plans to bring one or two recurves into his lineup down the road. Honestly this bow is incredibly fast with no hand-shock and the indicator grip it shoots very similar to a recurve.
