STATIC RECURVE
« on: April 22, 2014, 01:09:00 PM »
Anyone have experience with a static recurve from Hitman Archery? Need some feed back on a hybrid bow before purchase.

Did you purchase one?  I have one and I am impressed with it's speed and shootability.
Here are a few things about me:

I enjoy Hunting, fishing, raising goats, biking and kayaking. Love living life with my wife and 4 kids out in the country.

Here are my bows and such:
~ Black Widow Bows 66" PLX Longbow 47.5@31"  161fps with 600gr arrow
~ St. Patrick Lake Longbows (SwiftStyk ~ 64" (50#@31" = 161fps 600gr arrow)
~ Hitman Traditional Stykbows #1 (Recurve) (63" 52lb @31") ~

Luccman, no experience with Hitman Archery, but I've had several static tip recurves - still have my RER XR.

I love the feel of that bow as it approaches full draw. Those tips stay pointing straight up, which makes it feel several inches longer than it is, and while there is no "let off", it seems as though the rate of increase in poundage decreases.
60" Bear Super K LH 40#@28
69" Matt Meacham LH 42@28
66" Swift Wing LH 35@28
54" Java Man Elk Heart LH 43@28
62"/58" RER LXR LH 44/40@28

The letoff piece I certainly agree with.  I also have his longbow limbs (they are more whip-like and they almost perform like the static limbs).
