Hunter II or Raven ?
I am considering purchasing a new ChekMate recurve, but I am torn between the Hunter II and the Raven. Which one is the smoothest and sweetest and which will be the fastest? I am considering a Hunter II with black locust limbs and shedua/bubinga riser or the Raven with Shedua/Walnut riser and Walnut limbs. Thanks for your help.

RE: Hunter II or Raven ?
The Raven won't stack until it's drawn past 28-29"--very smooth up to that point. The extremely deflexed riser makes it very forgiving for it's length. Hard call there--depends on what it will be used for, whether you prefer a take-down or one-piece, your draw length, grip style you prefer, etc.
