I think if that was on Big Jim's website his wait list would be over 2 years.

Manny, this is Charlie on my fathers account.  You are a sucker    :p    Jim could offer a twig with a string and you would buy it.  Of course it would be the best shooting and looking twig in the world.

Both the Mountain Monarch and the Bighorn are amazing bows, hard to go wrong with either.

Fantastic Bows! I love mine. Smooth quick and quiet. Not to hard on the eyes either.

i signed up last year with the intent of getting a buffalo but I am pretty sure I will be switching over to that new monarch recurve!  hmm what woods will look nice in the rise with a vertical lam glue up?
