I have decided I want to try a flatbow like a Northern Mist Huron or Mahaska or Kohanna flatbow.Can any of you flatbow shooters tell me about your likes and dislikes of any of these bows? Thanks, Bob

I like flatbows, but I make my own. I've heard good recommendations on all three of those, though. I'm sure they're better than mine! :^)

Robert, those listed and others, like Robertson's, Great Northern etc. can't go wrong! Are you making one? What's your desires?

All those are good flatbows,I have a Thunder Mt. Coyote flatbow that is a sweet shooter also.It has a semi-reverse handle.Check Mate has a couple of nice flatbows,one of them has a turkish style look with a set back grip.I wish I hadn't sold mine.

Frank, yes I would like to make one but I have never seen one except the Great Northern Bushbow and while I liked it a lot I would like to hear some opinions on the others out there and what features made them good and what features might not be so good. I have a bow to trade and I wanted some opinions before I traded. Bob

Hi I have the BUSHBOW by Rodney Wright--it is a 52 inch
[email protected]
use it when I am in the thick and dirty wet stuff--which is usually less than 15 yards; Or in a closed in blind.It weighs next to nothing---smooth, fast,no handshock.
Unfortunately I can't do pictures.

You can't go wrong with the Huron.
I have one on order right now. Live about an hour away from Steve's shop. If you have any questioins I'd be happy to answer them for you. I saw two Hurons hanging in his shop last week.

Well Robert, sounds like alot of pluses on this style. How about a self bow or bbo flatbow? They're a simple design. What are you trading for? This design is pretty Bullitt proof. Good shootin to you.
