Post by: on March 10, 2009, 12:46:00 PM
Bob Sarrels of Sarrels Traditional Bows called me the other day to say my new Blueridge TD longbow was ready to pick up. Man, I was excited! I went to his shop and was awed when I saw her. This is one BEAUTIFUL and great shooting bow.

Specs are as follows:

55#@28"  62"length
Riser is Nicaraguan Cocobolo with red phenolic overlay
Limbs are black gkass with Action bamboo cores
Tip overlays are Axis Antler with red phenolic
FastFlight string

Here are the pics:

It looks like this bow is going to be my #1 go-to bow for my trip to South Africa in June.

Thanks again, Bob. You did another fantastic job!

Very nice! Now, how many Sarrels does that make for you?  One lucky man.  

Does he make it with 58" or 60" limbs?

Nice looking bow!

   The more I see of black glass in the limbs the better I like it.

Straitera, The bow shoots great! I have settled on 29.5" 55/75's with 250gr up front. Paper tunes and bare shafts great.
