An "Echo" Experience
« on: January 27, 2014, 11:33:00 PM »
It was a hard 5 hour drive to Kalamazoo last Friday and an even harder drive back home late Saturday. But the trip back home was made sweeter with a Two Tracks Bow Co., Chuck Deshler's Echo longbow.  Chuck and his wife Chris are such great folks and you feel immediately at home anytime you're around them.  Chuck handed me the Echo LB and off I went to try a few shots....and a few more......and a few more!  I couldn't get over how smooth, how quiet, and quick shootin' it was at under 50#.  This bow had some "Mojo" and I had to have it.  Chuck and I shook hands and the deal was made.  Since coming home I've hardly put this bow down except to eat, sleep, and shower!  I've heard others here at TG tell their stories about this great bow and now I can completely verify and highly recommend to anyone looking for an excellent made and beautiful longbow, give Chuck Deshler a serious look.  Oh yeah, Chuck didn't warn me that I'd need more arrows before I bought the Echo.  I've been tearing off feathers, bustin' off nocks and have split two arrows.  Looks like I'll be needin' more arrows now.....He, He, I love it!!!  Thank you so much Chuck.   :)   Horserod

Congrats on your Echo, and glad to hear it seems to be just an extension of your arm and eye.  

In one of the pics of the event that someone posted I could swear I could see one with white glass on the end of the rack.  Something tells me I'll be shooting one by years end as well.

Tom some how managed to talk me out of MY bow.
Brown glass, Walnut core, Narra riser, Much Mojo.
I loved that bow and shot it very well, but so did Tom. I rest easy to know my bow is in the hands of somebody that will enjoy it as I did.
 

This is the Anniversary model.

That Anniversary model looks very snazzy, Chuck.  Is that osage on the riser and the overlays?

I have been eyeballing this bow for quite some time now Chuck. I am surprised you still have it.
