Moots, I shot my first Chadmade bow in Kalamazoo. What a treat! Seriously good bows made by a fella who is a joy to converse with. That, along with meeting tons of good folk, was one of my best memories of the trip I made to the Trad Expo.

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Check on Chad's web site, he has photo's strung and un-strung of all his models. Tips are small and well blended.

Ron, could you show a full-length profile of the bow, please?

Chad does make some fantastic bows. His only failing in this case is that he got the shelf on the wrong side   :)

Got a chance to shoot my new Goshawk and I'm very impressed. Smooth, quick even with a heavy arrow [600gr]. I think this bow and I will get along just fine. The Osage in the sun is just amazing.

Thanks for the nice words, folks.  Ron is always a pleasure to work with.  It just makes me feel good to build a bow for people like him.  Take care,  Chad

Took the Goshawk stumping today for the first time......I was not disappointed. Smooth, silent and with great cast. When I did make a bad shot, trust me it wasn't the bows fault.......lol
