New Two Tracks Echo has landed
« on: February 24, 2013, 06:25:00 PM »
I am posting this write up and pics for Bob B, because he is having some computer issues

 
New Two Tracks Echo ....
 
I have a new Two Tracks Echo for  Chuck.  She is brown glass back and belly, 3 lams tempered boo, with a myrtle riser.  It is 48 pounds at 29 inches and as expected isvery smooth on the draw.  Also, as it is a string follow, it is easy on both draw and release.  The bow is nearly dead in the hand.  I have not finished tuning or finding the exact spine to shoot out of her.  To that end, I find this bow to be very spine tolerant.  I have shot arrows that spine in the mid fifties to mid seventies ... without a broadhead, they fly well, however, the bow seems to really like my cane arrows so far.  They come in around 540 grains and fly like darts.  I am surprised at the speed of the bow, being a lower poundage. I have some 500 grain arrows that just jump off the bow (FAST) but I get better flight out of the cane arrows.
 
Chuck builds a real nice bow!
 
Bob.

Yeah Joe, that deer has been hunted for about 3 years now.  It has been hit a lot between me, my children and students, there is not a place on her that has not been hit!

Nice bow for sure. I am looking to replace my Pete George,64@28 with a similar bow of lesser weight (55lbs.) I like what everyone has to say about their stringfollow bows.
Can you give me an idea what the bow performs at say 35 yds?

Nice looking bow Bob.  I sure do like Myrtle risers, especially in the classic American Longbow.  Your bow is sharp looking for sure.
I love my Echo too.  I see more are getting out there, I updated my review of the Echo in the "Product Review" section with more pictures if anyone wants to take a peek at another Echo.(Mudd wanted to see a full draw pic)

This bow seems to be very popular and building them has kept Chuck busy, and out of trouble.  Mine isn't too far off, I hope!!  Mine has a special story with it-I'll post pictures when it comes home.

You are quite welcome Mudd, my pleasure.  I'm curious Bob, how long is your Echo?
