dads bow is 54@28 and 62" long.  his was built off of a savannah.  it has a beaver tail grip that feels amazing!  i now wish i would have gotten one put on mine and i probably will very soon if big jim can hook me up.  his is made with bocote and cocobola.  very, very beautiful with the red accent stripes.

they do shoot pretty quick.  hard hitting as well.  both of us are shooting 35/55 gold tips with 200 gr points.  i had to cut mine about 3/4" for a slight bit of stiffness, but they bareshaft great with these set ups.

I really like the way his bows look and shoot. They look a lot like a black widow.


Sweet bows you got there.

He's a great guy to deal with too! Helped me with a bow deal over the phone. Can't wait to talk in person and try another Buffalo Bow, especially with a beavertail grip!
