Lost Creek Bows

This bow is on my short list so lets see some pics of your's. Thanks,Bucky

You can't go wrong with a Lostcreek they're no doubt the best value of a Hybrid longbow out there. Chad is a bowyer that will listen to everything you say and take it all into consideration when he's building a bow for you. I'm almost ashamed to admit to it but I've owned well over 100 different bows and the Lostcreek rates right up the with my Centaurs, Thunderhorns and Pronghorns. The Lostcreek is fast like a Centaur, points like a Thunderhorn and is forgiving like a Pronghorn. I hesitated in ordering my first Lostcreek from Chad because I never saw any really good pics of his bows. I got my first bow from Chad and all I can say is I was pleasantly surprised and it was as nice as any bow I own. Chad doesn't build fancy bows but he absolutley could if that's what you wanted I'd say he builds perfect hunting tools with a budget kept in mind without sacrificing any performance or finish detail. I've got Chad getting ready to build me another bow because my wheelie hunting buddy I gave the freedom to pick any of my bows to use picked the Lostcreek and hasn't put it down since. Everyone needs to get one of Chads bows before he truley gets discovered. I remember calling Jim Neaves years ago when he only had a couple month wait like Chad has so keep that in mind. Chad Francis is very down to earth and aims to please. You will not find a better shooting bow. I'm not a total speed freak but I can assure you it's one of the top 5 fastest if not the fastest bows out there.
Thanks,

Bucky,
not a lost creek owner so no pics for you, sorry. However, my two LH buds, DW and Skyler have multiple Lost Creek bows and me being a lefty too have got to shoot them. Awesome bow ! Especially for the $$$. Fast quiet, smooth. One of my favs is the one they call, " Life Ender " it is 44lbs of pure sweetness !

Bucky,

I can't post pics, but I can email you pics of my Lost Creek if you'd like.

Chad builds a very nice shooting bow, and they are everything COMBER said they are.

If you're interested in this style bow, I think you would be very pleased with one of Chad's bows.

We've got 3 Lost Creeks that we will never sale or trade...They have a Home...Skyler has the first bow Chad Built and "Life-Ender"...what else can I say but that the name fits it well....Great Bows and the best value around...Don

I have reviewed 2 of chads bows, and the improvements on the last one are very good. I have seen a couple of his latest bows and they are even better than the last one I reviewed.
He is making a very good bow at a very reasonable price. I think you get more than what you pay for.
 The reviews are on my Trad review pages at  www.peteward.com

Hi' Everyone,thanks for all the kind words and compliments on my bows. These bows are crafted in the land of big bucks and cornfields, Iowa, Gods country.

Chad Francis is from Eddyville Iowa. I met him at a trad. shoot in Ottumwa.

Bucky, This is Chad I can make the shelf as close or as high as you request over the top of your hand. I like mine as close to the top of my hand as possible and still shoot with a cotton jersey glove on. So when its cold out the feather won't hit my glove or hand. Chad
