GN Super Ghost

I'm on a 50's style curve kick and just traded for one.  What are the collective thoughts of the gang on the super ghost?

One of the best bows I ever owned.......At some point I let it go to drop down in weight, I would like to find another some day!
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

I've never met a Great Northern bow that I didn't like.

Here is a video of me shooting my GN Ghost as a benchmark for another bow.

When I think of how a bow shoots or how fast/cast it is, I compare it to this Great Northern Ghost. So, I could not recommend a GN more highly.

I too had Jerry take 5#'s off my super ghost, and he did a great job.
This was number one on my list of bows I should have kept.

GN Tradional Longbow was my first love. Then I got a used Ghost and the best hunting bow a guy could ask for... short, fast and reliable. Stopped hunting it cuz it was #66, and I was close to that age. They are simple elegance.
