I'd bought this bow a few summers ago from a fellow tradganger (1screagle/Ken) but never posted pics. The story behind the bow is this, (as told to me by Sue Dwyer); Their son Corey wanted to pull out all the stops and make himself a bow with the agreement that he'd sell it within a year. I'm not exactly sure what all woods are in it because frankly, there are a bunch. The veneers are some really cool zebrawood and the riser has zebrawood, osage, cocobolo, ebony and whatever else. The limbs are bamboo. The tips themselves have 13 laminations. It's the only "Special Edition" Dwyer that I know of and when it was done, Corey killed an 8pt. buck with it and named it the "Legolas" bow. (Years from now it will have been a 7x7 elk and the bow packed it out itself

) Well it's fallen into my hands and I just had Dave refinish part of it and put on a new beavertail grip. Here's some eye candy for you. Enjoy.

What a beauty and I'm sure it's a shooter too.

What are the specs?
Unbraced does it resemble a Defiant or Dauntless?
Looks longer than the Endeavor.

Looks awesome Mike! I'm still regretting selling it. Whenever you need to make room for another I'll take it back! Thanks for the pic's.

A great bow built by some great folks.Not to jump in on Mikes post,but to answer Lost Arra,it's a Defiant,Mike will have to give us the other specs.Thanks for the pics.

I can help, It is a Defiant 60" 55#@28" It is an awesome bow, shoots as good as it looks. Quiet and confidence inspiring. I will have Dave make me up one with the same specs one day if I can't get this one back from Mike. Mike has great taste in bows. The bow has Osage, Cocobolo, Zebrawood, Macasser Ebony, Bacote, 3-4 lams of bamboo with an extra power strip in the riser with extra overlays.

Can I afford it?

You might be shocked to see how reasonably priced Dwyer's bows are.Also some of the best folks you'll ever run in to,I look foreward to every memorial weekend.You will always be welcomed in with a warm handshake,and a big smile.
My go to bow for some time now has been a 66# defiant that Dave named M'bogo,and it has lived up to it's name every hunting season.
