I wanted to share some pics of my new bow… some of you know how excited I have been to get this little filly since ordering it at the Compton Rendezvous. Take about great turn-around time. I wasn’t expecting it to arrive until mid to late hunting season.
She is a Mariah from Wild Horse Creek Bows made by Mike Dunaway. It is a 54” recurve 52#@28”. Her riser is Brazilian and Bolivian Rosewood. Limbs are Hard Maple with Yew lams. Tips are Black Micarta, Bolivian and Brazilian Rosewood. She is also wearing a brown beavertail grip.
She is light weight, sexy and sleek. Even w/o tuning arrows to her she is grouping ‘em right tightly.
Mike also goes a bit beyond the call by providing a custom footed arrow with his bows made of the same wood as the bow’s riser. Nice touch !
Hope you enjoy the pics!

I really like the looks of that bow, and I am normally a diehard longbow guy. You are right the arrow is a very nice touch! I love the yew on that thing.

Very nice looking bow. Ditto for the wood arrows tipped with ribtek broadheads.

The quest to improve is so focused on a few design aspects & compensating for hunter ineptness as to actually have reduced a bow & arrow’s effectiveness. Nothing better demonstrates this than mech. BHs & speed fixated designs

Gorgeous looking bow.
Pretty short at 54" - perfect for a stand or blind or getting through the scrub.
Being so short what is the finger pinch like?

Thanks guys.
Andrew - I am feeling a bit more pressure on my bottom finger than my longer bows but nothing like my '66 kodiak magnum.
I am thinking about one of Mike's longbows with the same woods to make a matched pair as a christmas present to myself.
My wife is wondering why I always buy myself a bow for christmas and she get more cooking appliances. I tell her, because I work up an appetite shooting all them bows I bought.

Thanks for the kind words, Brian. I am glad your know bow met your expectations. Give me a call when you have a chance and let me know how it is shooting for you and share some stories from your bear hunt.
