I got one from Chad about a month ago and really like it. Chad makes a beautiful bow and is very smooth drawing. I have a 30" draw and his 60" bow is a perfect fit form me. I also own one of his "Ospreys", and that also is a great shooting bow. He is also a great guy to deal with. You would not be dissapointed getting one of his bows!!!

Ron,
If I were you I would grab that River Runner as fast as you can

If I had the cash it would have been already.

I have a 58" River Runner from Chad Holm. His bows are amazing works of art. My bow is extremely fast and almost silent. I hope to order an Osprey longbow from him someday too.

My bow is 58" 40# @ 28" Purple heart and bacote with curly koa veneers and bamboo core.

I have an "osprey" that I recently got from Chad Holm.(1 mo ago) I was fortunate in that I was able to drive to chad's shop. Chad spent about 3 hours with me making sure that I had the right bow and the right fit. I was making the move from recurve to longbow, the one I picked out was one that he already had on the shelf that was offered to Trad gang as a special with some others. The special to me that day was, it was just the right fit, it's fast it's quiet and it hits were a look. Chad was a great guy to work with. Hear some photos, enjoy

Chad's a great guy. A friend of mine shoots the River Runner and loves it. Don't think you can go wrong...go for it.

Very well made/good performing bows Ron. Doesn't hurt that Chad is such a good guy either.

It has all been said above, I put down 6 whitetails with one last fall, you can't go wrong.

Bought one of Chad's long bows a few weeks ago. I have shot a, meaning one, recurve for about 12 years and the switch to one of his long bows was very easy.
Chad's work and attention to detail on the bow and archer is top notch. You will not go wrong with any of his bows. Two thumbs up here.

I have had a River Runner for about a month now. For me it shoots great, I am not sure if i will even shoot another bow this summer. It has all been said befor, but Chad's bows look great, they are fast, quiet, and shock free.

ron w · « **Reply #13 on:** March 28, 2010, 08:57:00 PM »

Well, I guess I will find out for myself, I'm gonna get that one on the classifieds. 60" 43# @ 28" from the pics I got it looks like new. Always cool to get a new bow to play with and tune to my tastes,can hardly wait. I'll keep you posted......

minnesota_hunter · « **Reply #14 on:** March 28, 2010, 09:03:00 PM »

It should be a good bow for you. I realy like the kodiak style grip on mine.

Holm-Made · « **Reply #15 on:** March 28, 2010, 09:13:00 PM »

I'm sure you will like the bow. If there is any problems let me know. Chad

ron w · « **Reply #16 on:** March 28, 2010, 09:48:00 PM »

I guess it don't get any better than that,when the bowyer jumps in before I even get the "used" bow. I'm impressed already.....thanks, Chad if I have any questions I'll be sure to contact you. Looks like your living up to your reputation.
