Title: Barb called today!!!
Post by: Jwilliam on June 18, 2008, 10:00:00 PM
Well I finally got the call today from Barb Morrison. She was calling to let me know that the limbs for my new Shawnee were done, and will ship tomorrow. I can't wait!!! My new Shawnee is an "A" riser with "C" limbs. I went with Bob's new foam cored carbon backed limbs, with Eastern Diamondback skins. I had bought a stock riser in April and was just waiting on limbs. It will be a 58" Shawnee 50#@28" Here is a picture of my riser. I will post pictures of the whole bow when I get a chance.

They are performers for sure.  You will not be dissapointed in the bows speed or smoothness.  Quick, quick, quick.

Good looking riser! You will love those limbs. I can't put mine down. Can't wait to see the whole package.

I'll make a deal with you; Bob is about 1.5 hours from me. Been there a couple times. I'll go and pick them up for you, test them, and whenever I come to Erie fishing next May, I'll hand deliver them to you. What do you think?

Leatherneck,
That riser was sitting on Bob's desk when I visited his shop in April and it really jumped out at me. I had ordered the same woods in a "B" riser. I called Bob a couple days later to see if he would sell that one instead. Bob said that he was going to keep it for himself, but would sell it to me. So it probably never made the website. I guess I was just lucky!!!
