I currently shoot two Fedora longbows but just sold a td recurve a few months ago. It was all cocobolo and a little too heavy in mass than I care for now. It was the quietest recurve I ever owned. You'll be amazed at how well behaved they are for the speed you get out of them.

I have had several Fedoras over the years. They have all been outstanding.

I have been on the hunt for a 60# or heavier Fedora Extreme or Excellorator - Longbow. I haven't found one for sale, yet.

I have a Fedora Recurve, 62" 60# at 28", and I love it.

Never shot a Fedora T/D...riser seems a tad long and blocky. However, I own an H560 one piece that is very fast, smooth and very pointable. I also like the thumb rest. This bow with a dacron string is faster than bows of equal wt with FF strings. Love my "Lefty"

Fedora bows rock. My first custom bow over 20yrs old and of all the bows I have owned it is still with me.Only other original bow I have had for almost as long and is going nowhere would be my Bowriver Summitt by my good brother Ric Lepp.Gary.

I have never owned or shot a Fedora bow but can tell you they are knowledgeable and good people to deal with.  I bought some bowbuilding materials fron them and the products and service was first rate.
