After a long wait, I received my new Fedora Xtreme longbow. It is 64", 52#@29". It came in gray Actionwood with extra laminations and their "special core".
My initial impressions are favorable. It looks well built and the finish is a basic satin. The nocking point and silencers came already set up. Once I put my hand on the grip, my hand immediately became one with the bow.
The draw on this bow is incredibly smooth. I found myself drawing to anchor almost without realizing it. Once I released, the arrow launched straight to the target with perfect flight.
This was my first group, shot from 18 yards.
I've shot many bows over the years, and I can safely say that this is the first bow I truly felt was custom built for me. If you are looking for a fast, forgiving and quiet bow, you should seriously consider a Fedora.
