Wow. Outstanding. Congrats on a beautiful bow. Good luck in the field as I'm positive its gonna be shooter! :thumbsup: :clapper:
Looks fast just lying there. I've shot the Elk Heart and Helms Deep and own the Elk Heart. I've not shot the Tanjavur yet, but I'll rectify that at my earliest opportunity. Bet you're going to love it.
Look forward to your thoughts after tuning and shooting some.
Please post with those.
:thumbsup: :archer2:
Thanks gang, I will follow up when it arrives. I shot his personal Tanjavur last year and no doubt it will be a shooter.
gorgeous bow. love the macassar.
Enjoy! Bet you are checking the shipping updates from the carrier every half hour
Very nice!
Enjoy.
Looks good Kenneth! Hurry over here once you get it some I can help tune it lol

you're getting ancy aren't you!!
Well as much as I have been looking forward to this day it may just sit on my bow rack for a while. With all the flooding going on north of me I just found out that my sisters home has water to the ceiling so I will be concentrating all of my free time here shortly helping them. Please keep everyone affected in your prayers.

I have family in the Holden area and the water was over counter top high in some of their houses. My mother in laws house is now out of the water, but it was built a full 20" above the flood plane based off of the 83' flood.
They never flooded in 83 because it was already elevated but got close. They raised it more after the 83 flood and has water to the ceiling just so you can see how much worse it is this time. I've been hearing on tv that this is a 500 year flood. Thousands and thousands of people having to be rescued by boat and helicopter. Hope your family is safe out in Holden.
Nice one Kenneth. Awesome looking bow.
Sorry to hear about flooding. Going help my sister and niece this weekend. Rain was crazy. 18-1/2" at the camp but all ok
I feel you man on the flooding. I have been working round the clock since the flood. We know so many people that have lost so much. I just had to make a death notification to the family of somebody we could get to in time. This a 1000 year flood and man the back flow is gonna be crazy. It's terrible down here. Anyway let us know how it shoots and it sure is pretty.
Awesome bow, Gregg sure can build em!
Another great looking bow from Gregg Coffey. :notworthy: Sure is some good looking Macassar Ebony !!!
Sorry to hear about the flooding. That's terrible.
Beautiful bow though. I really like the curves of her. I've got an Assyrian on order. Gregg definitely makes some awesome bows.
Awesome bow. Bravo Gregg, bravo. Gregg never disappoints.
:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Good lookin' stick!

Got it in about and hour ago and just sat there a few minutes staring at it. Strung it up and drew it a few times inside while looking at the rain fall outside. After a few minutes the rain slacked up a bit and I couldn't take it anymore. Grabbed a couple of arrows and ran out in a light rain to take a few shots. I have some tuning to do but wow what a shooter this bow will be!! This is by far the smoothest drawing bow that I own and probably have shot (although I have not shot all that many). I did not notice any hand shock in the 6 arrows that I shot but I did manage to break a nock on 1 arrow already. I will follow up at a later date when this weather passes and I have time to do a little tuning.
Man! Gregg makes some cool looking bows.
I've looked long and hard at his elkhearts! One of these days...
Congrats on the bow! It's a beaut!
Wow, beautiful bow. Gregg is "The Man".
Got out this morning for a short while and shot a few arrows. The ones I were shooting were way under spined but I still had 2 arrows that I had cut too short for my other bow so I got those out. These were still a little weak so I dropped tip weight from 200gr to 175gr. Shot 2 groups at 15 yards and they shot pretty good but I will cut 1/8" off and see what these do with 200gr up front as that is my goal.
