I'm not old enough to remember Howard Hill, (or even Fred Bear for that matter), but I've wanted an ASL for awhile now though I can't really say why. I briefly (days) had a Shelton but my pointer chewed the limb. Well I finally got around to ordering a Two Tracks Echo, a bow I've had my eye on for awhile. Chuck was awesome to deal with and convinced me that at my 26" draw he could build me a 64" bow, so long as I don't let anyone else shoot it. It'll be Osage, walnut limbs and light brown glass with a grip made to the measurement of my hand. It'll be 58# @ 26" and hopefully I'll get to figure out some woodies for it. This should mark the beginning of a new trad journey that I'm impatiently waiting to start, so long as I can keep my dog away from it :thumbsup:
I picked up an Echo at Compton from Chuck. Mine is 70" 47# @ 29" Osage riser, walnut cores and Dark brown glass. I shot it some today......I think you will be pleased. :thumbsup:
Heard amazing things about them. I got on the list back in December and as far as I know its currently being glued up this month. Super excited.
Chuck is extremely detail oriented and the Echo is a great choice of hill bow.
What a coincidence! I just took delivery of my new Echo. 70"
#62 @ 30". Osage riser with Walnut limbs. It's beautiful. It throws a long heavy arrow with authority. I'm going to write a review when I get some time. I love it
Isn't that funny, seems to be a popular combo. It isn't something Chuck recommended either, i actually asked for that.
I wanted woods indiginus to Miichigan. It's a nice looking combination. Very well behaved after the shot as well.
