Title: Opinions and pictures of a Northern Mist Witbeck
Post by: inthere10x on June 11, 2017, 11:07:00 PM
I have a Northern Mist Baraga, which I really like (only wished I had ordered a 62" instead of 60" bow). I'm considering a Witbeck in the same grip style and weight as my Baraga, just either 62" or 64". Did a search not much info or pictures.
Your opinions??
Any pictures out there?

I have a Witbeck; mine is 66" and I really like it. Sorry I don't have any pics to share. It is quite a bit heavier that any 1pc longbow. Its my only 3pc D shape longbow; I love the deep core narrow limbs. I find it stable, smooth drawing, darn quiet, and throws an arrow with authority. I bought mine used and really wanted a 64" version but the added two inches is nothing and I think it works better on the Witbeck riser length.

Have heard nothing but praise.  I've only personally tried several of the 1pc bows.  

Also be aware Steve builds a 3pc with a more radical hybrid style limb from time to time called the Skanee, he just doesn't have it on the site.  You might call and ask him about it as well.
