Holm-Made River Runner
« on: March 25, 2012, 01:06:00 PM »
I would like some feedback on this bow.  My last bow was a GN Ghost that I loved everything about but did not seem to get a feel for the grip.  How will the River Runner shoot in comparison?  Will it shoot as quiet?  Also have considered an Arroyo.

Tough to compare these bows with th elittle information.

I am not a fan of straight grips. the only GN I shot had a straight grip. The arrows were fast and true but the bow didn't click with me.

I have liked both the river runner and the arroyo. Both great bows but the grips on the two I tried, were more my style.  They also had fast arrows and hit where I wanted them to.
Relax,

I have owned both, still have a River Runner, Ghost and a River Runner are similar in style but really really 2 totally different bows.I sold my Ghost becaus it was to heavy for me.....still a fine bow and I would buy another. My River Runner is my go to bow right now. If both had similar specs either would be a good choice!

I like the river runner as well.  Shoots quiet, plenty fast, and a beautiful bow to look at.  Chad is a true artist and his customer service is second to none.
