Title: My new Sweet Grass!!!
Post by: Arwin on February 10, 2009, 02:53:00 PM
Ok I've been busy and now it's time to post some pics! Went out stumping in gorgeous Feb weather. Saw a few deer and some great sign. This is the best "D" bow I have ever shot!!!!! Gregg is one heck of a craftsman!!

Look halfway up the big tree and to the left. You'll see a doe I snuck up on.   :thumbsup:

Gregg makes a magnificent bow, and yours is definitely one of them. Congratulations on that Sweet Grass.

Ah.. I forgot. Bamboo limb cores with yew on the outside. Cocoblo in the riser with a maple accent stripe. I forgot the other wood in the riser, I think it's yew.
This bow weighs almost nothing, yet has no handshock! I could shoot it without string silencers, but the fur dresses it up a bit. Has just a subtle thump sound on release.
I've shot/owned a dozen or more "D" bows in my life and will never want anything else...except maybe another Sweet Grass!!
I'm itching to see what it chronos out of curiosity. When unstrung it has a very slight R/D. Suprisingly fast compared to a radical R/D design.  I thought for sure my 2018's would have been overspined for this bow, put it spits them straight.

I do like the looks of this here bow! From the photos it looks like she has a nice reddish color. My HH Half Breed has yew limbs and has that same color.

Congrats!   :thumbsup:
