Kevin gheda Brescia Italy 23 July 2026 Perfected nostalgia I've been shooting for many years, and so did my dad, with the old iconic Picchio, and we always had great results. Then one day we discovered the odd idea behind this double, triple, or even quadruple evolution — to the point that the old and new bow aren't even comparable anymore. Because of work and other commitments we didn't… Ivano Tinazzi Fornovo San Giovanni BG ITALY 23 July 2026 The certainty of having made the right choice… Before writing this review, I want to say one thing... thank you Filippo, thank you for giving me the chance to try and get to know this wonderful bow; a combination of beauty and advanced technology, thank you for your availability and patience in accommodating some of my requests, thank you for your advice, and thanks to all this I've… Mario Taufer Primiero San Martino di Castrozza Italy 23 July 2026 My rifle 😁 What can I say... I've been using Filippo Donadoni's bows and prototypes for many years, in a journey of comparisons, trials, and constant search for my ideal bow. Over time, with Filippo also becoming a friend, I've developed a collaboration based on testing and comparison: I bring my impressions, and he, with his knowledge and skill, turns them into technical… Eros Milesi Como 21 July 2026 Super testa rossa Da qualche anno uso il testa rossa di Filippo che mi ha regalato e mi sta regalando belle soddisfazioni !! arco molto stabile,silenzioso oltre che esteticamente molto bello e curato !! Consiglio di provarlo !!! Asti Carlo Parma Italia 21 July 2026 It’s excellent Good morning, I’ve been practicing archery for about 12 years. I started with the longbow. For many years I got skilled with this type of bow, with plenty of personal satisfaction. Just to try it out, I bought a Picchio, a simple traditional recurve. A few years ago, Filippo asked if he could add weight to my riser to run… Battista pescini Chiari ( bs) 21 July 2026 Testarossa I’ve been using the Testarossa since its very first year — a very smooth and fast bow that gives me great performance even at a very low draw weight. Going from 42 pounds down to 29 was quite a challenge, but I admit I rediscovered the pleasure of shooting that had started to fade. Thanks to Filippo for building a… Emanuele Bergamo 21 July 2026 The Beautiful Bow I switched to instinctive shooting in 2015 with a longbow — an amazing feeling. Over the years I then moved closer to the recurve, which I recognize has more performance and a more rugged character compared to wood. I came to the Testarossa Picchio among the first customers. I switched to the newly released carbon limbs and took first place… Viotti Maurizio Brescia 21 July 2026 The faithful companion I want to thank Filippo for this masterpiece, which allowed me to get back to a good level after my serious injury — he built me new, extremely high-performing limbs even at a low draw weight! Thank you, my dear friend! Michele Carimate (co) Italy 21 July 2026 The pleasure of shooting a bow I might not be objective, I know. Filippo has been a friend and a “rival” for almost forty years, and I watched Gughi grow up and become as skilled and reliable as his dad. But the fact that, since I came back to archery after a thirty-year break, my only bows have been Testarossas isn’t just down to friendship. I’ll… Luca Giuseppe Antonio Monterzino Carmagnola (TO) - Italia 21 July 2026 Fantastic bows! Beautiful looks and — above all — outstanding performance I know Filippo Donadoni not only as a friend and craftsman, but as one of the few bowyers who manages to combine tradition, innovation and technical research. I’m lucky enough to own three of his bows, and I can say each one is a unique piece. The build quality is impeccable: carefully selected wood, top-level finishes, and an attention to… Mariarosa Marchesi Nembro BG Italy 17 July 2026 My “Testarossa” bow My Testarossa Bow When Filippo was designing his own new “Testarossa” bow, I told him over lunch that I wanted to move on from my “Picchietto” to a more high-performing bow, and after a while he called me to try out some grips. That’s how riser number “000” of the “Testarossa” by Filippo Donadoni came into my hands, complete with… Papà Filippo Alzano Lombardo BG Italy 16 July 2026 The bow I had always dreamed of, I had to make it myself… After spending more than 50 years shooting a bow and 30 years selling the most prestigious traditional bows in the world, I wanted to make the bow I had always dreamed of. One that would bring together the best of what I had learned from my experience with craftsmen and customers, and everything I had dreamed of to perfect it.…
