I just got my 2nd Owl on friday. I like them so much, I'm thinking of clearing out a couple lam bows on the classifieds and getting another Owl.

I'm going to hunt with my new one right off the bat this fall. I went to Traditional Outdoor Supply and bareshafted some cedars and and am set using either 160gr or 170gr Ace heads.

I can't say enough about Ed's bows. They shoot very well and are the most quiet bows I personally have shot or been around.

And that's not to mention the art work, which really puts Owls in a different league from pretty much anything else out there.

We're going to download a ton of pics later in the week. I'll try to remember to post some.

Simply put, order one, you won't regret it.

I have the "hunting bow" and they do load up in the final inches. I wouldn't say "stack" because the feel is more of a "loading", if that makes any sense.
My new one is 43@29" and 50@32".

Both of mine are works of art that you can hunt with.

We have three Owls in our home.  The daughter has two and I have one.  We love them.  My daughter still has not stopped smiling since we bought her bow at Compton from Ed.  I also can't say enough about Ed and Carolyn just great people.

He is top notch, in my book.  I don't have any of his bows but have shot a few of them.  At Cloverdale, the first time I met him, he asked if I would like to shoot the bow I was admiring.  I confessed that I was not in the position to purchase a bow at that time but thought they were extremely nice.  He said that didn't matter and strung up the bow and sent me to the range to try it out, anyway.  
He knows how to turn a piece of wood into an excellent weapon.  
The next year I took my homemade osage self bow in to the tent from the shoot and he took the time to evaluate it for me.  His wife is as sweet as person you will ever meet, as well.

What is the average cost of his bows?  I have been wanting one for some time myself.
 Let's see some more photos of Ed's work please.

I have lam bows that I could part with because I can always get another if there's sellers remorse. But I won't be selling either Owl I have and I want another. There is no duplicating an Ed Scott masterpiece.
