Two Tracks Longwalker vs. Dwyer Original
« on: April 12, 2013, 01:12:00 PM »
I am considering purchasing one of these two bows at 66" and 50# @ 28".  I have a 30 1/2" draw.  

Has anyone shot both?  Which is smoother?  Any handshock?  Which do you prefer?

Thank you,
Rob

I can't comment on either bow really. I shoot one of chuck ambush recurves. I will tell you that you wont regret ordering from chuck at twotracks. He's a great guy, does even better work, and the price is almost impossible to beat for the quality you get. From what i've heard, the longwalker isa great bow, fast and with little handshock. Thats my two cents worth anyways.... i''m sure others will chime in here.
Now then, get your weapons, your quiver and your bow and go out into the open country to hunt some wild game for me.- Genesis 27:3

Never shot a Dwyer, but I love my 62" Longwalker.  It is extremely well made and has excellent cast-loves my wood arrows.  Quiet, smooth, and little, if any, handshock.  Chuck's a standup guy who will work with you on throughout the whole process.

I have owned and shot both.  I think very highly of both bowyers, Chuck and Dave.
The Dwyer original is awesome, a slender 1-1/8" in width and smooth as a bow can draw. Hand shock is pretty much non existent in both bows.
The Longwalker is just as smooth to full draw.
Both have a perfect attention to detail, fit and finish.
My experience is the Longwalker is a fair bit faster.
I owned both bows at the same time, the Dwyer was 53# and the Longwalker was 54# and I shot the same arrows out of each.
I would be proud of either, but my personal nod goes to the Two Tracks for being quicker.
Both are as quiet as a deflex/reflex bow gets.
I hope this helps you in your decision.  Shooting them both yourself would be the best though.

Chuck says that he has a new model of s similar style about to hit the market.  You should ask him about it.
