I've never handled a Mohawk, but my GNCG is a favorite bow. It is as quick as anything of a similar design and is absolutely quiet. It is a very consistent shooter for me and has no bad habits.

Ralph, I have shot both and prefer the Great Northern. Nothing at all wrong with the Mohawk but prefer the Great Northern. The Mohawk was quiet, and no handshock just did not care for the grip as much. Great Northerns have a good following as well, quiet, and smooth as Fletcher said. Flint

i'm sorry to say, but there is no way that words can describe precisely how any bow will feel or shoot for YOU.
totally forget the opinions of others - that's hearsay and has nothing to do with YOUR reality of how a bow feels in YOUR hands and after YOU release an arrow.
either work it out so you can shoot both bows before deciding or ...
... play the eenie meenie minee moe game and hope to get lucky.
actually, you'd never know if ya got lucky 'cause you dunno how that other bow would feel and shoot for YOU!

Rob is right on!!
I have even had two HH bows both made by the right people(HH Archery)
They were so close but as different as day and night.
I had to look to be sure which one I had in my hand just so I'd know how it wanted to be held and shot.
Each had it's own particulars and if I didn't do it their way they just didn't shoot like they should.
God bless,Mudd

Mudd, I know the feeling of 2 different bows by the same maker. I was told by a wise friend if you pick up a bow and love the way it shhots you should just buy it because one like it from the same bowyer may not be the same. I shot a Northern Mist Baraga at Compton a few years ago but the red glass just was not me, but boy was it a shooter. Flint
