Mr. Mohawk done good!!
« on: May 06, 2012, 12:09:00 PM »
After two years of following Vince's "following" - reading (mostly between the lines) I finally  pulled the trigger on a Mohawk, specifically Vince's new Sparrowhawk longbow.

There are two people among many here at TG that command respect for their knowledge and overall contributions to our wonderful addiction.  

Rob D has given me a lot of helpful info in the past...I have a analytical way of looking at life and Rob can easily feed the need for data, subjective, objective, and otherwise.

RC holds the other card...he has terrorized the swamplands of the Georgia with amazing and consistent taking of game.

Both of these guys will tell you without hesitation that their 'Hawk is #1.

Armed with this information, I called Vince and a month later I received a package.

Vince, thanks for taking the time with me - the end result is a keeper!  

In about 20 minutes I get to spend the afternoon getting to know her....with any luck at all, we'll make meat this fall.

Any bow that looks that good must be a shooter!

Congratulations!!

It would be impossible to go wrong with a "Hawk"!

Hey Eric,
The handle is a handfull LOL! And I have real big paws.

I send Vince a sketch with dimensions and photos. He made me a comfy "dish" that works just fine.

If that bow were 10# lighter, I'd trade you my whole bag of marbles for it. I love my Sparrowhawk too   :)

I have really enjoyed my mohawk as well. My dad loved it so much I gave it to him for christmas. One of the best bows I have shot. Enjoy and awesome wood combo...is that bocote and cocobolo?
