Here are a couple. Mr robertson said he thinks he made only 3 pierce point limb bows and he quit doing pierce points all together. Hope these pictures work or I will try to post again. jim

cacciatore, im up in the air dont know if i want to get another takedown or a one piece? i figured the tribal styk would be a top notch bow, i have to choose which one i want because i cant buy two!!!

As for the antler knobs, I don't exactly know. They weren't expense so I'd assume they are cast.
Frank aka 'sticshooter' is who made them.

Nice post Felix, you are guilty of corrupting me.

Robertson's woodworking skills are amazing. I've never regreted the three I own

Here is a couple I used to own. The all Myrtlewood bow is THE prettiest bow I've ever held in my hands - the pics don't do it justice! Dick does a great job with his Juniper limbs too. Truly beautiful bows that shoot as good as they look.

If I ever go back to shooting a recurve again, it'll be another Robertson.

Nice couple there AALLFAB. Greg,mirtle is for great shooters because of its light mass weight makes the bow a little bit more instable,but a beauty for sure.Thanks for posting. Rusty,I take a look at sticshooter,Dick was used to carry the real ones but he quit because he had some issues,I am still using mine without problems.

Felix,

Frank aka sticshooter makes some great antler knobs, as far as I know he uses real antler.

Felix, Larry,
You guys aren't making this any easier, posting all these bows and Talking about the hunt!

Highlandwarrior · « **Reply #90 on:** January 28, 2010, 09:15:00 AM »

By the way Felix you are going to get me in trouble, I may have to start looking for one of these Robertsons after the hunt- AFTER the hunt. First it was the Bear T/D.....

:D :p

You wouldn't happen to know of any used lefties would you Felix

Love that short risered Fatal Styk. Nice stuff guys, another added to the wish list.

phil_des_bois · « **Reply #93 on:** January 28, 2010, 10:25:00 AM »

What is the length of the Fatal Stick riser?

I really love the small size of my Gozhawk short riser, the vision falcon short riser is too bulky for me compared to the Gozhawk.

cacciatore · « **Reply #94 on:** January 28, 2010, 10:48:00 AM »

The lenght in the riser during the 90's was 18"up to the end of the decade,then he started to make them a little shorter 17 3/4 and more mass in the window and more large in the section,around 2005 the riser is been shortened to 16 3/4 for the long riser and 14 3/4 for the Gozhawk then became SR(short riser).The new Fatal Stick is still 16 3/4 but slimmer in the window or upper portion.
Highlandwarrior,you'll have a chance of a test drive on the EagleCap Wilderness in September.

Sorry Phil I didn't read well your post,you say there are some differences between the Gozhawk and the SR? Can you post some misurement of yours?Felix

phil_des_bois · « **Reply #96 on:** January 28, 2010, 11:10:00 AM »

The Falcon SR is a tad longer, and larger I think, I'll check that tonight.
Also it feels bigger in the hand.

cacciatore · « **Reply #97 on:** January 28, 2010, 11:32:00 AM »

These are the dates I had mine:
1993-94-95-96-96-97-98-99-2000-06-06-09.During the dark years I am been stored by women,but now I am wiser,there are more of them than bowhunting seasons.LOL

Danny Rowan · « **Reply #98 on:** January 28, 2010, 02:14:00 PM »

You know I have been telling myself I do not need anymore bows. Now Felix starts this thread and I remember the Fatal Styk I had and the Falcon I killed my Bison with so now thanks to this thread I just ordered a Fatal Styk X all flat cut zebrawood for the riser and limb vaneers. Now I have three bows on order, a Quest that is due in a few months, a Talltines and now the Robertson. I am truly a sick man.

phil_des_bois · « **Reply #99 on:** January 28, 2010, 02:49:00 PM »

Here you go Felix, top is the Falcon SR 58" 56# @ 28" cocobolo/Juniper, bottom is the Gozhawk SR bocote 56" 60# @ 28"

This time the Gozhawk is at the top, you can see that the riser is shorter on the Gozhawk:
