Holm-Made GoshawK?
« on: December 13, 2012, 08:32:00 PM »
Any Holm-Made Goshawk shooters out there?  I have 2 of Chad's Ospreys and I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on a Goshawk as well.  Would love to see some pictures and hear any feedback you guys may have.  Thanks in advance.

I won a bow build on the St. Judes auction and Chad built me a Dual Shelf Goshawk. If you do a search for "St.Judes longbow" you can see photos. It is a real good shooter and Chad's talent really shows in this bow. I also have a River Runner and an Osprey....he builds a great bow!
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

Actually, if any one has a 64" or 66" Osprey, it is the same bow as the Goshawk.  I just renamed it Goshawk in the last year.  I made 30-40 of them before I got around to changing the name.  Chad

I shoot a 64" Goshawk 46@28, my bow-wife!  She is the sweetest thing.  Shoots like a dream.  I've got a 60" Osprey now too, but the Goshawk is THE ONE.  EHK I'll email you some pics when I get a chance.  Mine's a shedua/bubinga accent riser with yew veneers, gorgeous!

I have a 58#@28 64" Osprey now Goshawk.  I've finally worked back up to it after being away for awhile, so now I'm ready for some deer hunting next week.

The bow is quick, quiet and it is smooth as butter to my 29" draw.  I love it, and it gives me confidence to get back in the woods.

P.S.  I'll have to take some pictures.
