Spirit Longbows
« on: June 09, 2009, 04:04:00 PM »
I'm really liking the looks of the Spirit Longbows. I know nothing about them, anybody have some experience with them or any input would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

I bought one about 5 months ago. 62 inch 50# 28. I find it's all I'm shooting at the moment. A very nice bow for the price.

Like Traveller said a nice bow at a nice price.  I have a Spirit recurve and like it but I have also shot a longbow a few times (my nephew has one).  They are good bows, it all comes down to that personal preference thing.  Oh yeah, and Bryan is a good guy.

I bought one about 2 months ago. It is my first longbow so I cant compare it to anything else, but I know I love it. Mine is a 62" 44#@28" but I draw to a tad over 30". They are smooth drawing and very quite.

I have one its 62 inches [email protected] zips my carbons fast. Does well on woodies. It has zebrawood veneers and red elm core limbs, red elm might be one of my favorite corewoods , the rise has some black in it, its cool looking bow. Shoots where I look . Grip is slightly dished . The bowyer is diamond in the rough .  :)

I know im dredging up an old post here,  but just curios if there are any more folks out there shooting Spirit (Bryan Holley) Bows?   Just looking for both pros/cons that anyone may have.

Im just getting into Traditional and have it narrowed down to a few bowyers, Bryan being one of them.

Any info. greatly appreciated.

Try one from rmsgear.com on this site from CO. good people, excellent bow for the $$, mine was a little loud w/FF but dead quiet w/B50 and that's what Bryan recommends, Good Luck ...
