Title: Binghams purchase for first glass bow
Post by: joe nichols on January 16, 2015, 04:08:00 PM

I just purchased materials from Binghams for my first glass bow attempt.  I got a limb package for a 60# R/D.  The materials are not here yet but they were more than helpful getting what I need. I will update when I receive the packages but my first impressions are good.

Binghams is pretty reliable.  If you follow their plans, you will end up with a bow close to your intended draw weight.

Binghams is a good company, they been at it for longer than I can recall.  Others come and go but Binhams seems to be here for the duration for which I am grateful.

I've been building bows for over 15 years. Although I have always used my own design, they were the first material supplier I bought from and I still use them today as much as I use anyone else. They always have everything you need.

Ok, I got the delivery and wow, it was packaged perfectly.  If I messed this up, I was hoping to be able to blame it on the product, but their product looks great.  No damage and shipped in a timely manner.  GREAT, now if it blows up, it will be all my fault.

Cool. I did not know they had a 60" R/D. I thought they just had the 62" Hybrid R/D Longbow.
