Thanks. Mike, I saw that Lynx...Very nice! Abe's bows are work of arts.

I was actually wanting a Slynx, when this came up. I'm glad I got this one after I saw it. I'd still like to try a Slynx sometime.

You'll get to try one. I just bought the T/D he had in stock.

Sweet looking bow, Good luck with it. I've been eyeballing Abe's bows for years bit never got one in my hands yet.

Nice Mike! Abe knows how to for a grip that just melts in your hands too.

Tom,

My draw length is right around 29.75".

I'll give a better review after I play with it a while...

Yesterday, when it came in, I shot it some....I just used some arrows that I have fletched up and points that were already on. They are 30.5" CX Heritage 150 with 175 points. Brace height is at 7" and it seems to shoot them pretty good. I believe it will be spine forgiving. I need to try some 400 spine and see how they shoot.

Only bow I can compare it too that is similar is a 47# @ 28" Centaur Chimera. To my eye, it's as quick as the Centaur. Shoots about the same as for as accuracy for me. I like the grip on the Cari-bow better...it's one of the best grips I've felt. It is louder than the Centaur, but Centaurs are really quiet bows. The Cari-bow isn't loud, just louder than the Centaur. Has a "pop" to it at the shot....but playing with the brace height, string, and different arrows will solve this, or as least tone it down some....like said, this is with just some cx 150s I have that was tuned to the Centaur.

That's a beauty! I find myself frequently drooling over the Cari-bow inventory photos, have to leave the credit card out of reach.

Crema etimoe, never heard of it...very beautiful. I hope you don't mind but I brashly stole a couple of your pics for my "Fabulous bows" archive.

What a beauty! One peice bows have always been my favorite. I am saving every penny for one of those myself!

Lamey · « **Reply #31 on:** February 04, 2012, 11:05:00 AM »

would love to see one "first hand" and actually shoot one someday, one of the few bows I havent tried out yet. This one is really a show stopper, nothing gawdy, very natural looking colors etc... everything flows so well.

onewhohasfun · « **Reply #32 on:** February 04, 2012, 06:12:00 PM »

Mike, I thought Daves bow was pretty quiet when I shot it. One tiny set of cat whiskers. Wish I tried a 58". I think Abe said 29" or so was about max on a 58".

Yea, like a feller selling bows he ain't got yet???? And selling bows he's had for awhile as fast as he can? And bows he just got?

dragonheart · « **Reply #36 on:** February 05, 2012, 01:17:00 AM »

That is a looker right there! WOW! And David says it shots really good also!!

Mike Burch · « **Reply #37 on:** February 05, 2012, 05:59:00 AM »

Probley the nicest bow I've seen leave my driveway...hard to let that one go, but I have too sloppy of a release for it. I need a little longer one, plus I got my mind on a 62" mild r/d longbow.. :D

...or maybe a T/D Slynx?? 2" may make the world of difference!

Mike
