Javaman Falcon for my 32" draw
« on: October 11, 2016, 01:04:00 AM »
I thought I would share my experiences with my new Javaman Falcon. I have had it about 2 months now and I am only liking it more and more. I was hesitant about it because I had never shot the Falcon, but have the Elkheart. Gregg suggested with my long draw that I should go to the Falcon, and I am sure glad I did. I have owned a few of Gregg's bows and I think this is by far my favorite. It still has a smaller profile for treestand/blind hunting with a less pronounced reflex deflex design (although still very prominent). The overall length of this Falcon while strung is 58.5". So far I have only killed a squirrel with it, but I am having a great deer season so far. I highly recommend this bow if you're a fan of Gregg and have a long draw.

I'm on the list. That's a great picture at full draw. No finger pinch there. What are your arrow specs? Bow specs? I draw 31". Nice bow.

Nice looking bow. I was thinking about the Falcon XL. My draw length is 28" but I like bows that are 64 and up.

Beautiful bow. I draw less than 28" and love my short Elkheart. It's a one-piece. I would like a bow bolt model.

I believe those are Easton Full Metal Jackets (FMJ). Carbon arrows.

Yup those are Easton FMJs, 400 spine, uncut, 75gr brass inserts, and 125gr vpa 3blade.

The bow specs are 44#@28", bow-bolt system, Chechen and phenolic riser, yew limbs, with kudu horn inlay. Thanks for all of the love!

Man!!!  

Every time I look at one of Gregg's bows, I walk away trying to scheme up how I could afford one!

They are gorgeous.  Thanks for sharing!

What kind of brace height does the Flacon use. I'm  planning on either an Assyrian or Falcon?
