After shooting my "show off" bow, I HAD to order another one for hunting.
This is what Brandon came up with:

I wanted it to be kind of camoflaged..it turned out better than I thought it would...but that's been the rule with Brandon and the bows I've gotten from him.

Very nice!
-
That is SWEET!! Man,one of his bows is on my short list! Gotta talk the wife into letting me have an early birthday present! Congrats on your new bow man! :thumbsup:
-
Purty!!
If that beauty is your knock around hunting bow, I'd like to see your Show Off bow.
Brandon makes some of the best looking bows around.
Congrats!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

That thing is nice.That Bradon guy has his act together :thumbsup:

Buck-tamerOO Not to be coy, but Brandon has so many options it would be best if you looked at his site for pricing.

Thanks for all the kind words...it's appreciated.

He had some bows listed in the sponsor classifieds that he was giving a deal to for TG members not to long ago. Go take a peak, maybe something is left that will strike your fancy.

How do Brandon's bows shoot? What are the woods on your new bow?
-
Very nice bows. I have the Puma twin to your Cocobolo/Curly Maple show off bow. Have only been able to shoot it 3 time so far, but it is a shooter. Very quiet and smooth.
Brandon does awesome work. You cannot go wring with his bows.
Here's links to pics of mine just to show off another one of Brandons beauties.

Nice bows. His bows rival any of the better looking bows out there. Your not going to break the bank to bad either.

It is grey actionwood riser, actionboo cores, I don't know the veneers, but I would think they are stained bamboo(I asked Brandon to surprise me and he did!)
I'll try to find out on Monday.
It's too cold to shoot this one right now with -10 to -30 degree wind chills, but the show off bow: draws smooth, is fast, quiet and is tolerant of spine as it's cut just past center. It's a top drawer bow in everyway.
Brandon is an artist and it shows.

Brandon's site is back up..

Awesome bow Rob, them ole' turkeys won't have a chance.....wait they didn't before,lol,lol he sure does make a purdy bow..................Steve
PS, laid up the carbon limbs last night, still waiting on the dymondwood for the riser though.
-
I have one of Brandon's beauties and it is a dandy! The attention to detail and artistry in his creations must be seen to be believed. It's hard to comprehend that something that pretty shoots that good!

They are the prettiest wood working I have ever seen. He is a true artist. I don't think I would want to hunt with that bow either. Increadable work. :thumbsup: :notworthy:

I think coming from me (because I'm not that well known here) people might think..."honey moon comments" on a new bow.
Coming from you, I would think the comments carry substantially more weight.
-
Wow theyre some nasty bows!Dont be scared to hunt with that purty one.Battle scars give a bow some some extra character.
-
Three issues ago in TBH mag there was a test and write up about one of his bows.Believe me he pasted with flying colors!!
-
Your Show Off bow is really sweet but I like the Hunter better. :readit: :saywhat: Congrats on your bows.
-
Wow, I like that color combo. It's a true original for sure :thumbsup:
-
Thanks Ron...I am fortunate to have two of Brandon's bows.
Admittedly one over the top, and one a bit more subtle.... :-)
-
his limb designs r friggen awsome!!!!!!
-
as always, brandon shows us "functional art" at it's best! i'd venture to say he builds one of the purdiest bows on the market!
-
I just returned from Voodoofire1's where I crono'd this Hunter bow.
I shot fingers, used GT Traditional 35/55's that weighed 424 grains. Bow is 47#'s at 26"...I think I was drawing about that. I was getting 175-181 FPS with most at 178.
I've never crono'd other bows to see how this compares.
Nothing on the string but a metal nock.
-
I must say, that is one of the most beautiful,and well built bows I've ever seen, pictures do not do it justice, I looked it over with a fine tooth comb and it's perfect, What a great job Brandon did in building this bow, you can sure tell he loves what he does.........Kudos Brandon!
-
wow those are some nice bows
-
-
Brandon, looks like another beauty you got there!!
Blacky does a much better job of scientifically testing than I ever would...nice to know I was in the ball park. I figure I lose about 5 FPS using fingers, another 6 or so for having a 26" draw or so, and either I didn't draw to 26" or differences in Chrono's would account for the other minor FPS differences.
Your bow is plenty quick for me. More importantly, I hadn't shot ANY arrows in a month, and only about a dozen arrows in the past 5 months and I was shooting very good (for me) without much of any warmup.
-
brandon, brandon, brandon..... blacky's tests are TOTALLY inconclusive. what you really need is a realistic FIELD test!! i'll be hunting turkeys now and deer from a stand in the fall. please overnight me the 58" bow, it should be fine for me to test.
you're welcome in advance for my sacrifice and hard work.....someone has to do it! :biglaugh:
seriously though, BEAUTIFUL bows and real performers too!!!!
-
-
Brandon, turkeys are pretty rare on my farm. I was plain lucky to get one this past fall.
I was out this past weekend scouting and didn't hear them or see any tracks, so I think that bow will have to wait until deer or squirrel season to be christened.
-
Hey Brandon-
Just wanted to say that the King Panther I got from you a few weeks back is a shooter. I am shooting better with it than I have with any other bow. It took me a while to find the right arrows, seems it likes a stiffer spine than some of my others, but is smooth and fast. Its 67# at my draw and shooting a 630 grain arrow at 192 fps. That is set up for hunting with puff silencers on the string. Thanks again for a fantastic bow.

Mitch,
I'm glad to hear that you are happy with the bow!
I appreciate you purchasing it and I hope that you put it to good use.
Take care,
Brandon
-
I love that first bow that was posted. I must have one.
-
Brandon, No thanks are needed, I just call em like I see them and you are one gifted bowyer,I have seen many bows in my 40 yrs of archery, and yours are the some of the best I've ever seen, Rob offered me many chances to shoot your bow, but I declined because after I saw how well it was built, and how good Rob was shooting it, I quickly figured that it shot even better than it looked, and then I'd just have to have one, and my wife would kill me! but I'll have one one day, 70# er, just have to save my pennies!
-
Brandon, do you fit your riser to the archers hand in any way? Curious as I have a somewhat small hand and have found some recurve handles a bit large for me. BTW, where in Ohio are you located?
Joe
-
Joe,
i know that marblesonac had brandon work on the handle a little bit for him, hed probably do it for you, and since you are both in ohio, would make it that much easier. BTW, Chronoed my king panther today with a new string, d97, and got 197!!
