I had no idea this was available to bow hunters....
As someone who NEVER liked any bow that wasn't a one piece bow, I was glad to see the hinge, sleeve, bolt, slide, etc.... Those options gave way for a TD that looked like a one piece....
Why haven't I heard of this???? Why isn't this being talked about and gone viral? I had no idea this even existed till I contacted Kirk about a bow. This is genius. This is a thing of beauty.....
Just as Centaur comes up with a 2 piece revelation, Kirk has a 3 piece epiphany.... I'm all in on this one..... Going down in weight while going up in age has its silver linings.... Best get in line.

How excellent. :shaka:

Best riser he makes, imo

Terry, I have a version of that bow, not those colors, that I shot on 2023 Javvie hunt. 62”- 50 and 55 lbs. Adding 45 lb as we speak. Kirk may have pictures.
Everything on that bow is first class
-
Wow, had no idea about that feature either.

I’ve been building these for quite a few years now, but do not do much advertisement. The procedure is a bit time consuming and requires special millwork in the riser, as well as using T nuts in the limbs and overlays to cover the hardware.
I try and grain match the overlays as close as possible to give the illusion of a one piece bow.
Here are a couple more to look at.

WOW!!!
Works of art.

Gorgeous work, as always, Kirk. I can't wait to see how Terry's bow turns out.

Kirk, just wanted to make sure we talk before anything happens. I typed a 7 instead of a 5 and so I gotta make sure I get everything correct. I move too fast sometimes.....
Also, you SHOULD advertise this blind option and you should CHARGE for it. A pretty penny for sure. This is a very unique option not available elsewhere. Take advantage of it, as well as the credit. :readit:
-
Kirk, I just want to make sure you saw the typo...
Arrows are in the work already. I don't have to guess what spine. I already know in my head what will work.
-
Awesome, and I seldom use that word. :wavey:
-
THIS is beautiful craftsmanship.
-
I made a note on your work order on the grip circumference. We got this…
I will most likely get the riser laid up next week with another one I’m working on. I’ll get photos as we go every step of the way and do the build along. Kirk

Sounds great.... 5 1/8s .... i don't need a flat spot
-
Dang. I think i NEED one of these! :notworthy: :saywhat: :thumbsup:

Well Rob… Considering I know you are a serious long bow fan. I have something in mind that just might fit the bill nicely.
When I first came up with the full overlay design matching the limb butts, it was in fact done on my R/D long bow I call “The Flatliner”. It was a pretty cool project with some unique artwork involved too.
If you would like to hear the story, and see the photos of this baby, I’ll start a different topic and tell the tale…. Please let me know…. Kirk
