I think they are my favorite recurve of this style.  Fast, no I don't have a chronograph, basing it off having to add weight to the arrow so I didn't shoot over everything.  Very stable and forgiving, especially in a recurve.  And quiet, just dang near longbow quiet.  As to the grip style, I have always ordered my Toelke's with the classic grip but picked up the Chinook used and it had the thumb rest.  I actually liked it, not overbearing, just the right amount of a bump to position your hand in a very repeatable manner.  All in all, an extremely fine example of a recurve that pulls together all of the elements that are needed to deliver an arrow to the target.

Here is one of the reasons I love Toelke's.

I’ve had a few bows in my time. Hence my username. The Chinook is either at the top or very near it. I will have another one someday. Only reason I sold the last one was it was too heavy.
