Including the old model (basically discontinued, but you can still special order one) that Tuff pictured, they offer 4 different ones....well, three since one is the same bow, just offered in a one-piece and a take-down........and two flatbows.

The Crusader (my favorite, and the bow I use for everything except bowfishing) is a mild to moderate deflex/reflex design, also available in a take-down model. There is also the Golden Hawk, a very mildly reflexed Hill style. Then you have the one Tuff pictured. Shoot, I don't even know what the model name is on that one--Marc (the bowyer) always called it the "Reverse", because of the reverse riser. It's also a mild reflex design.

In the flatbows (put in the longbow class at every shoot I've been to, including the TX State Longbow Championship) you have the Thunderbird, which is a mild to moderate deflex/reflex design, similar to the Crusader; and the Longhorn--a radical hybrid, with a design based on the Turkish horse bow.

PC, what part of MS are you in? What shoots are you going to? I'm headed for Twin Oaks this weekend, hope to be at Enid, and plan to be at the ASTB state championship. I'll bring whatever I have with me--you can at least try out my personal bow if you want.

I'm in Newton, kinda East Central.

I hope to make the Enid shoot--probably just be there Saturday if I can come though. If either of you are ever around Tupelo, you are close to me. If you are near Fulton, you are REAL close!
