Aonyone know how to see their bows(Big River)? Do they have a website? Thanks in advance!
No web site. We can start posting pics of ours on this thread and you can get an idea from there.
Mine is a hunting stick.60 inch 57lbs @ 28 inch.
The veneers is what he called fiddle back maple and was stained with a stain he can no longer get.

Bigriver Bows are made by John McDonald of WI. He doesn`t have a website,or a computer. He does build really nice bows, some pics of mine. I have a few :)

had a kodiak copy by John saweeeet. He is a one of a kind for sure. Makes a super bow.<><
I have a bow similar to 702plmo except the riser is Zircote(dark chocolate/ebony color) and the limbs are bamboo, which has turned a nice yellow/gold over the years. Don't know how to post pice. John does make a great bow. Mine is 67# @28".
Thanks everyone. I would like to see that Kodiak copy!
John makes a good bow. I have several sitting around my basement. He makes a bunch of styles and configurations. My favorite is his 66" R/D longbow. They are great hunting bows. Just received a new one and it is beautiful. Need to grow into it a bit though. A great friend has several more including a Super Kodiak wanna-be and three piece longbow.
If you are wanting one...might be a good idea to act soon.
