They are my favorite T/D recurve and I'm always on the look out for good used ones. Last night I was rewarded with this Vision Falcon 64", 49# @ 31" beauty.

Here is one of my peregrine, hope you don't mind the 2 pieces T/D.

WOW Phil,I have never seen the Pierce Points on limbs,congrats.Where do you live in France?

cacciatore · « **Reply #64 on:** January 26, 2010, 12:19:00 PM »

Phil,I tell you that one piece are good looking but not practical at all when you have to ride those Jets oversea,this is the reason i buy almost TDs only.

Last year at K-zoo I shot all the bows that I could not afford. The Robertsons were the best. If I ever have $1000.00 burning a hole in my pocket, Robertson will be the bow I will Buy. I also had a chance to meet Dick and have him autogragh my "Best of Traditional Bowhunter book"
He was a very nice and down to earth man.

I wanna play too but I dont know how to post pics. I would be happy to email them to someone to post for me. I have one of the first fatal styks that Dick made and man is it ugly.

Gladly show mine off,again

Whats done to the Fatal Styk to increase its performance in comparision to the Falcon?

don't know for sure but it does perform better and the grip feels much better on the Fatal Styk, to me anyway. I love my Falcon but the Fatal Styk is something special.

cacciatore · « **Reply #69 on:** January 27, 2010, 04:19:00 AM »

TJ,very nice woods there.Well the new Fatal styk has much less mass in the riser,it is slimmer expecially on the top part.And the limb pocket have a different angle a little bit more open.Anyway the last Vision serie since 2006,shares the same limbs of the FatalS.My impression is that the new model likes a higher brace,but it doesn't loose speed over the old one and it is more quiet too.

The top Falcon IV is bacote/ebony/bacote and bacote limb veneers short riser. Next one down is Myrtle throughout long riser. Smokin' Hot!

I like the mirtle it makes a Robertson lighter than a longbow.Where did you get those antler knobs,are they casted?
