"""Soooo I have my new light poundage 59 Kodiak Recurve that I’m really enjoying. But of corse I now need a LB to go with it!!!
I’m strarting to look and shop around, one name I remembered from the past was Dwyer long bow, anyone know whatever happened to them.
Great Nothern has my attention""""
Unsure this would be any help , but....
How are you with the Kodiak Grip ?
If that fits you well , I would look for or order something similar ...several custom bowyers that likely can get pretty close...some that likely won't ;^) Some folks can switch from one style grip to another with little adjustment , but some can't .
Imho the grip is the deal maker/breaker , that is why I shine light upon it
Bear archery sells the Ausable R/D longbow that has a similar grip style and readily available if you want to go off the shelf ;^)
JD Berry grip looks real close as well....That said , Big Jim , Great Northern, Kirk of Bigfoot bows , and many others can/will build you a sweet Longbow with a grip how you like it .
Also lots of choices like 3Rivers ......The options can be overwhelming to say the least...in a good way
Best with your quest my friend !
