Title: Ya'll want to see something pretty?
Post by: Brian P. on September 17, 2008, 08:34:00 PM
My new Fox Royal Crown came in Monday. Still tweaking it in but it shoots sweet. 60" bow 55# @ 28" . Bolivian Rosewood and Myrtle riser, with some sweet Myrtle veneers. Just in time for the season opener in a bit over a week.

That's a beauty!  I have one of Ron's Royal Crowns myself and it is a great bow!

Work of art.

Even someone who does not appreciate a beautiful bow would look at that as art.

Good luck with it.

I can't see the pics at work, but the Royal Crown is a great shooting bow.  If Ron ever produces a 3-PC T/D Triple Crown, I'll be placing an order!

Thanks for the compliments. I am happy with it. I first ordered a Breed with Rosewood and Bocote riser, Quilted Maple veneers. By the time I was done, the Breed had turned into what you see above LOL. Glad Ron is easy to deal with.

See,

I had to wait a bit over 4 months for this one. It might be a little longer now that hunting season is in out west. Ron is chasing elk right now, if I am not mistaken. The Royal Crown sells for $700, with a few upgrades available.

Bill,
I think I heard Ron mention something about a 3 pc Royal Crown when I talked to him at Cloverdale. DONT quote me on that, though.

Kevin,

Sure wish I was up there chasing moose again. I havent heard how their bowhunters did yet this year. Shane hasnt been guiding yet, so he hadnt heard how they did.

If I could just get Miller to commit to making the trip again, I would mail my deposit today. Claims he has to send his daughter to college in a year or two. I dont even have kids of my own, and they are cutting into my play time LOL.

The veneers  on this bow are unlike any Myrtle I have ever seen. Ron said it was some he had left over from the anniversary model bows he made a few years back. Very unique stuff.
