thinking about a new bow

[Jason Hansen]

I have been thinking about a new bow, but I am stuck between two bow makers. The first is a maddog recurve, I have been looking at these for some time. I have recently seen the website for hilm made bows and really like these as well. Any input in either of these two bows?

Can't speak for the Mad Dob bow, but if you mean Holm Made bows I will highly recommend them.  Finally picked up one of Chad's River Runner Recurves last August and I like it a lot.  Craftsmanship, fit and finish are right there with the other top bowyers.  Normally I don't find Recurve grip very comfortable and had a hard time shooting them well, Chads took my input and made the grip on my bow more like a longbow.  This bow is quickly becoming my favorite.   Also makes a heck of a R/D Longbow as well, seems to be his most popular model.
P.S. Chad is pretty easy to work with (most Bowyers are, I guess), but Chad goes out of his way to make the buyer happy.

I will have to check out his river runner recurves. Thanks for your input.

I bought a bow from Chad as well!  He had me come up and shoot several different bows to find the one I liked the best.  I bought a 60 inch Osprey and love it.  I get alot of compliments on it when I have gone to shoots this spring.  Don`t think you would go wrong with one of Chad`s bows.

I have 2 bows from Chad. A Recurve and a Longbow. They are by far my favorite bows that I have. I have about 7 different bows from various makers in my collection so far.
