Tradric, I don't have pictures but check out his website.  Great bows for sure. Very fast and stable. He has a grip on the riser that is the best I've ever held. YOu know you are gonna grip it the same each and every time.  His bows are really top notch. Rick is an incredible shooter as well.  HIs clinic did more for me than I could have learned in 5 years on my own. Invest in it if you can, it is worth it for sure...

Thanks for the input guys.I have 3 of his DVD's myself.There all very good and informative.His grips with the finger grooves and maybe a little narrower than usual thickness is one of the reasons I'm intrested.I would expect his hands on instruction would be very good considering his videos.Thanks tradrick

Here's a Dakota I got about a month ago. I'm impressed with them. They sure do hit hard and they're real easy to shoot well.

i shot a tournament a year ago or so, that rick shot in. He is undoubtedly an exceptional shooter. I personally dont care for the way his bows look, but they sure seem to shoot fine.

I've got one of Rick's bows ordered and hopefully it will be here before long. I took Rick's class back in August and it helped my shooting out tremendously. You won't go wrong  taking his school. It was the best $400 I've spent on archery.

I recently ordered an all Bocote bow that looks just like the one above. The fit and finish is great and the bow is very smooth and hits hard (carbon limb core). I really like it. mine is 51#@28 and I got the 60" bow. Rick is a great guy and a really fine shot. His double anchor method has helped me a lot. My wife also got a bow but hers is Cocobola and Bocote. It is a real looker. If I was going to get another one that is the combo I would get now after seeing hers.

I got mine on order with Rick. his bows are nice. He is great to deal with. he sent me a bow to test in the field for a few days to send back to ensure proper fit and selection. I can't wait to get it!!!
