Mike reached out to me to ask if I knew any lefties in the market for a Tip and I forgot all about you being wrong handed. Sweet bow and a super write up. I think you nailed it with the name.

Great review Chuck.

I know that Mike really hated to part with the bow, but unexpected things do pop up in life that we can't control.

I'm glad to know the bow found a home with someone who thinks so highly of it.

The new carbon limbs will make you the envy of  many archers, especially the ones shooting Schafer Silvertips.

Congrats on the new bow....it is a dandy for sure.

I have had a few tips in the past and find in my older age that they will be my go to bows for the rest of my life. Schafer recurves, Stewart longbows doesn't get any better.  Very nice write up Chuck.

I'm reminded of Jack Nicholson's Joker when he exclaims, "Where does he get those wonderful toys?!"

Seriously envious of your arsenal of bows!   :notworthy:

Nice write up and congrats on picking up an awesome bow.
I am always envious of you guys who get to try different makes and models of bows. It is a little difficult here in New Zealand so write ups like yours make the task of selecting a bow much easier... Or should that be harder?

I will have to ask Mike as he's the one who ordered it but I 'believe' its just the standard medium type grip?  Looks medium wrist to me anyway.  I could take some measurements if necessary.

Awesome bow buddy! You sure do have good taste in bows.

You need to shoot in the longbow division with your Fox TC at NFAA indoor nationals next year and bring all your toys so I can play with them.

It's a fun shoot. I've shot it a few times with the Olympic Recurve. I think Mrs E and I will make the trip this year and make a weekend of it. Hope to see you there.
