Sunday Delivery
« on: August 09, 2011, 10:13:00 AM »
It's been 15yrs since I took my first deer with a recurve while stalking a cornfield near my house. Since then, I've used a compound and done very well but this year I'm going back. On sunday after church a tall, dapper man (you can pay me later Chuck) delivered me a new Two Tracks Longwalker. 60" and 54lbs, it really zips 'em and looks great too. Now all I've gotta do is figure out how to hit the target...     :archer2:  Oh well, least the bow looks good!

Sure is a purty bow! If you use ugly arrows to miss the target with, you won't miss them as much,lol. Congrats and welcome back. Mike

Very nice bow and a wonderful way to come back to trad archery.  Tell the bowyer, "nice job".

Thanks guys. It's good to be shooting trad again. I've taken my recurves and longbows out here and there over the years but never primarily hunted with one. I've already got a different mindset going and looking for good close opportunities while running my trailcams and planting food plots. Should bring a another level of fun back to my hunting for sure!

Almost forgot, here's the knife made from the riser cutouts. Can't wait to get it dirty.

Gabe, I'm lucky to have one of Chuck's recent bows and he said yours was even better! I can see it is a great looking bow. I hope you find success with it. Sometimes success comes without a filled tag though    ;)   Welcome brother. If you need a partner for a TwoTracks longbow segment, I can start clearing my schedule. Who made the knife, looks great too!   :rolleyes:

Kevin, Our humble knife maker, is responsible for the great knife. That blade is just sweet KHALV.
I am happy that you like the bow Gabe. It turned out pretty good. I will give the specs,
60" 54#@28".
Quilted Maple belly.
Birdseye back.
Figured Chechen/curly Ash riser.
Amber boo Core.
Matching knife from KHALVERSON.
Sheath By Tim Able.
I to can't wait to see what falls to the prowess of Gabe the hunter, Is is into some nice deer and can most times find a way to put his tag on one(or two).
Good luck Gabe.

I did not get any pictures to post but I asked Gabe if he could show the birdseye back. He said he could do that for me on Thursday.
It is some really cool maple,about 10,000 little eyes with a lite hickory stain.  :thumbsup:  
Thanks to all and to Gabe for doing the pics.

Here's the pict of the birdseye. Pretty sweet looking back! Perfect natural camo. Now if I can keep my friends from shooting it...

The knife is awesome too. That chechen wood from the riser has an iridescence to it that you can see in the knife as well. Special thanks to Kevin for putting together a beautiful piece of steel! Can't wait to "field test" it!
