I’ve owned two Martin/Howatt bows and they were both great shooters, well-made and good looking. The ‘Mamba’ I owned was a fast and hard-hitting bow – I only sold it in order to make a down payment on a custom I was lusting after. I still own a ‘Savannah’ which is a joy to shoot and I’d put it up against a lot of other hybrids that cost significantly more.
