So I shot a Stalker--Reveiw pg.8

[ron w]

         I dislike waiting..........     Soon I hope!

[Cyclic-Rivers]

Ron, you are getting impatient.       Don't rush South, he may make a  mistake under the pressure and have to start all over      :p

[Wannabe1]

I have a longbow I'm waiting on to be built but, now that I have the Bighorn, I'm not even looking forward to it getting here! Don't see myself shooting any other bow for quite some time.    :rolleyes:

Look forward to seeing your Stalker Ron.

awesome and congrats of course. Between that diy thread on the other site and this clip, you've got me all wound up to get back on a river far far north... sooner the better too

[Herdbull]

Deerfly- Thanks.  If you want to read about my hunt, check out my solo moose hunt and tribute thread here on tradgang.

Herdbull - that Schleyer looks amazing.  What is your favorite characteristic about it?  Feel, look, accuracy?

I sure like the looks of his bows.  The Schelyer model is on my "wanted" list, for sure.  Such a beautiful wood combination.  I plan to demo one of his static recurves soon.  If they shoot as good as they look, they must be among the best bows out there.

Same here !   :D

[Herdbull]

TheYak-  The Stalker are similar to Brackenbury and Wes Wallace bows of which I have shot for years. The new models that South is putting out have slimmer grips and more defined. I like the feel and the wood combination. I also like that South dedicated the Schleyer line to Bart's memorial fund and educational support of his son Artyom through a $100 donation from each bow.  Mike

Mike, you might have said already, but did you get the static or dynamic limb on this bow?  Just wondering what you thought about the static if you got that.  That's the limb I want to try in the Wolverine handle model.  It sure is a great looking bow.  I shoot Wallace bows, so if the grip is similar I think I will like it.

Duplicate post - 1 day later ?

I got one of the first Schleyer models. Now South has expanded the line and the style choice. I do not have the static limbs, but woluld like to try them. I am a long recurve guy and most of mine are 64 inches. South put a flat tough finish on his hunting bows, but I kind of would like to see the Schleyer in a satin of semi-gloss finish. I bet the wood grain would just pop!

[Diamond Paul]

Very nice bow, in any finish.

I should have my bow in another 10 days or so.....

Please post pics.  I would like to see them.  I love that flare he puts in his high-end riser.  That's my favorite look for a riser.  I'm not sure that the correct technical term for it, but the hourglass shape accent, whatever the term for it is.

Mine is a Coyote Static, nothing fancy, but when it comes I will show it off!

Handsome is as handsome does, so they say.

The FXT models all have the flare - the XT has the chevron shaped accent stripe, and the SL is the plainer actionwood version.
