New Bow from Cascade Archery
« on: July 12, 2010, 12:56:00 PM »
This past weekend I had a chance to see and shoot Steve Gorr's brand new longbow model he has added to his line of great bows at Cascade Archery.  The bow has been named the "Brush Hawk" and is available in 56" only at this time.

 

Its phenolic riser and black glass (along with red actionwood accents) give this little bow the looks of one I may have named the "Stealth Hawk".  

 

This model was 45# at 28" and it shot my 2016's and 2114's just great.  With my 29" draw, I expected some stacking, but this little beauty pulled evenly and smoothly out to 30".

 

I shot a 3-D course with the bow and fell in love with it.

 

Needless to say, I had to place an order for one in 51#, but with grey actionwood accents.  By the way, I cannot remember the last time I ordered a new bow of this quality for around $500, making this one of the best deals out there.  

It is fastflight ready, plenty fast, smooth and quiet, and puts the arrows right where I'm looking.  

What a bow for the thick brush or a blind!

You beat me to it...I was waiting to take some pics of the bows before posting (I know, I know, I will take some photos of these as well and post them).

I will have 4 of these with me at Denton Hill for guys to try and/or purchase. The weights will be 45# yew back and belly with a maple riser, 46# yew back and belly with bocote and cocobolo riser and 56# ash back and yew belly.

Like Lon, I also had to place an order for one after shooting and handling the new Brush Hawk. The one that I shot was 56#@28" and it preformed better than one of my other go to longbows that's 63# and 57" long. The Brush Hawks are quiet, quick and good looking. Perfect for treestands and ground-blinds, like all Cascades Steve has mastered the magnum length now in a longbow.

Swing by the BisonGear booth and check these out, bring your arrows you wont be disappointed! And the price on these is unbelievable!

Lon let me shoot a couple of arrows with it also. I thought it shot great also. I am a dedicated DAS shooter but might have to add a longbow to my collection.

That's definitely a nice lookin' bow Lon!

Can one order it with a low wrist?

Cascade Archery is a sponsor here so you could go direcly to Steve's site and pose that question.  

I believe he will be at the TBW Rendezvous at Packwood in early August and will most likely have some bows to sell or shoot.

Thanks for the feedback Lon!

Yea, I checked the site for information, but it is not listed yet.

Hopefully, I will make it to Packwood.  I am already committed to be in Kent on August 7 so hopefully there is no conflict....

Keep the wind in your face!

Lon, nice hat!

I will have to shoot one of those bows next month in at the TBW Rendezvous just to satisfy my curiosity.

That looks like a lot of bow for $500 considering the quality that Steve puts out.
