sutto,
I can tell you that Marks bows are everybit as good as any high end bow made here in the ole USA. Why not buy one? I have owned almost every high end custom bow out there, trust me, and there is not much difference in them for performance and such, it all boils down to personal preference. I have owned bows made in Scotland and Germany also. I have always wanted to try one of Marks bows and have heard nothing but good about them.
It shoots right there with my Schafers so it will be staying with me.
Sorry to hear about you being robbed. Hang in there, you will replace what was lost eventually.
