Anyone have a Seigeworks Creations Scythian GennIII

[Zradix]

I'm pretty taken by the look of these bows. Just wondering if anyone has experience with them. Quality, speeds, forgiveness, hand shock..etc. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!!

They look to be very nice bows but I know few about them,I would like to see some reviews me too.

[Danny Rowan]

I have a sidewinder and it is fast and quiet with no handshock, and very lite in the hand beautiful bow.

I don't know if you've check on Stickbow.com they have one listed and I think it is only a few weeks old!

[Buckwheaties]

Thanks Dave, Let me know how the grain looks?? I've got a pig hunt lined up for the end of Feb. Sure would like to try it on some of those oinkers??
Zradix, should be  around the end of Feb.

I have not shot the Sidewinder but Dave makes a quality bow.  I own a Magyar and have another one on the way.  Plus Dave is a quality guy to deal with.

[Zradix]

Awesome!!! Hope you love it! Course if ya don't I have a big mailbox. :-)

[Zradix]

Possum... I just looked and couldn't find it. Nuts.. Thanks for the heads up though!

[sw]

Woodie, do you need a loaner Gen III to get some practice? happy to loan out a 45/50# until your bow is done.

How sweet is that!!

Shot one for the first time today. My friend, Northern California Hunter, has a longbow and I think a Sidewinder or Scythian. Shot the one that is not a longbow...flat out spits the arrow..I'd have to guess it was over 200 fps...looked as fast as my wife's wheelie...very smooth and quiet.

[sw]

BTH - that is prolly one of the best comments i have ever read - your gonna inflate my ego!!!!  :D

Truely tho - the best speed i have gotten has been 212fps on a 8ggp at i believe the sidewinder was 55#. That was at a 28" draw - finger release. BUT it was also made with a boo core and maple veneers and had a slightly pronounced recuve then the normal models. I cut some of the recurve as the bow was fast, stable and smooth, but arrow tuning seemed to make the testers say the bow was a typical shortbow and hard to shoot. Not the case - the bow wants an arrow it likes.....

I recently tested a 55 pound sidewinder with 14ggp and got 158 fps, the arrow was rock sold and sunk into the 30 yard target to the nock.

Currently the best combo i have found is the boo core with maple veneers, i have supercharged the bow design and tested at 30 to 32" draw at 7ggp, they get REAL touchy and hard to tune BUT once tuned - holy cow!!!

Currently i am experimenting with thicker tips that are 3/8" wide and string bridges, the bow is starting to really spit an arrow. I have cut the experimentals to 53 and 55 inches strung and drawing 31". I have broken 212fps on these bows, the test bow is rock solid and going through testing like a champ. I am staying away from carbon for now as i still want to keep prices down....

i am playing with diamondback and cobra skins with claro walnut (oregon black figured walnut) in this short configuration. But the project is slow as i have other things needing to get done.

Yea, like finish my bow!! (other things to get done) HA HA just kidding.. I went to Daves place and met with him and his wife, nice people, shot the Gen3 and the sidewinder and they are both SWEET bows!! no handshock and quiet.. I can't wait to get mine,, the price is right too!! good people.. nice horses too..
