Yes Sergio, the grip is really nice.

It is very accurate for me...and very stable for a short bow.  I'm no bowyer, but I think its in the design, lines, lack of hand shock, and brace....along with that grip.

Like I said....I don't have a chrono....but my eyes are telling me its really slinging my everyday 580 grain arrows that I normaly shoot from 60-70# bows.

And again, this bow is VERY quiet, and I'm going to put half Hush Puppies on her at lunch and make her even quieter.  

The bow does sport the name Trad Gang, as its a little deal I worked out with Chad.  I normaly shoot 60 - 62 inch bows, but have recently recieved another makers 56" recurve, and it got me interested in trying short 'longbow/hybrids' as I have seen more than a few needs for a shorter bow at times.

This bow will be for sale when I get finish testing it....and boy am I temped to order another one in my weight range.   :readit:

That is a beautiful little bow !!! I guess I need to watch the classifieds in the near future   :)  

Chad makes a great bow and to date for "me" the most shooter friendly, forgiving bow I have owned.

Terry,
Glad to hear you are catching the LC bug. I know more people are interested in what you think more than what I say about a bow. They are light and shoot right where you look. My 54" is a homerun for me. Easy to use out of a treestand or ground blind and smokes an arrow. There are many many good bows out there but the Lost Creeks are up there with any of the best.

Hey Terry how you reckon that short bow will do with a draw of over 29".  I have shot a few short bows that stacked and pinched my fingers and I also worry about them holding up over the long run being pulled back so far.

I'm a "long" longbow shooter but that there bow could persuade me to try a shorter bow. Looks beautiful.
