Title: Carp Vader! PICS ADDED!
Post by: owlbait on April 21, 2009, 09:43:00 PM
Just bought a new bow from Jim Belcher (T.T.S.S. Carp Vader) and he included a Bear Paw bowstringer. What a great idea and good insurance that your product might be strung correctly. I love the Selway stringers but for @$5 this is a great investment for the bowyer and the bow owner. Oh yeah, the bow is WAY cool too  :cool:

How does a stringer work?  I have heard of them but am new to archery so I'm not sure how they work.  Thanks  

Sorry for the slight hijack, also can we get some pics.

Wait a minute, the thread is about the bowstringer, not the bow! Besides, you would all be too jealous of the meanest, sexiest, bowfishing set-up that you could possible lay your eyes on. I'll try to post pics tomorrow if you promise not to droll!

That's the AMS Pro retriever combo with the Wave roller rest. Shoots straight in the pond. Hope to bloody the beast next Friday  :archer:

Son-of-a-ditch.  I should have known with a bow name like "carp vader" it would be different, but I got to say those pictures surprised me. Very cool, but too pretty to get full of carp. Enjoy.

I plan on keeping Carp Vader covered with carp eggs and slime. I hope to kick Belcher's behind over at the Great Lakes Bowfishing Championship the last weekend in May. Does a bowyer mind getting spanked if its done with one of their bows?

Jim told me today he'd be fishing a tournament with you next month. Let me know how you like those limbs he made you.

Well Cody, it really is a tournament for only elite bowfishing teams, practice up buddy and we'll see if we can get you on the waiting list. The top teams shoot over 4,000# each year. My team shot 1 fish last year! My partner had a new girlfriend and ....well, he just couldn't concentrate   :biglaugh:

Just yanking your chain Cody. First 250, 2-man teams registered get in. Some years it is great shooting some years it is better socializing. Check with Jim on entry stuff.
