I love mine. You won't find a better bowyer to work with.

53#@28.5"-58"
Riser is Zebrawood/Diamondwood.
Limbs are Actionboo cores with Zebrawood veneers, diamondwood wedges and antler limb tips.
Very fast and smooth as silk.

Months after I received the bow, Kevin told me that one of his customers experienced "checking" on the limbs due to the Diamondwood wedges. He said that they were not harmfull but if they happened to my bow, ship it back and he would repair it. After hunting season, I noticed what I thought were checks(happened to be scratches) at the wedges. Kevin told me they were just scratches, but refinished the whole bow free of charge because he changed to a more durable finish than the old formula which was on my bow.

How cool is that???

That's just how Kevin is. Customers are #1 to him and Sue.BTW that is a sharp looking bow. Heres some of mine. The first one is the LittleRiver LB It's 56" and i draw her to 29"s with ease.  The 2nd is my Vortex wow what a looker ans Ashooter taboot!And the 3rd is his standard Longbow which is so smooth and fast just like everything Kevin and sue make.   (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v83/fishrofmen1/DSCN0057.jpg)     (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v83/fishrofmen1/PANA8373.jpg)   (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v83/fishrofmen1/PANA8020.jpg)   (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v83/fishrofmen1/PANA7674.jpg)

They sure are very fine looking bows. If they shoot just half as fast as they look they must be keepers. Alan

Here's my Vortex (Dave Pagel's before me). Plain Jane, 3 shades of actionwood w/copperhead skinz. Its quickly became my go-to bow for plinking, stumping, rabbit hunting etc. I prize my Zippers but I do dear (http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q271/bowmac_photos/SkinezeeBows005.jpg)ly love this little guy.

Oh c'mon ... now why did you guys have to go and post pictures of a bunch of pretty bows I'd forgotten about ? !

Now I have to go revise my wish list again !   ;)

...and to think, if I would have put my money where my dreams where last spring, my new Arroyo would be just about ready.   :(   Sweet sweet shooter that 62" is.    :thumbsup:   ...Vortex is great too.
