I have been a real bow whore as of late  :saywhat:

Got this today and it is a super nice bows. This is the first dryad Glass bow I have shot and I am very happy. Them boys build a great bow. If ya look real close at them arrows in  the target you will see my OTHER first. Yep a ROBINHOOD! Yeah I know old news to alot on herer but for me it's a first aand i am pumped. Been shooting a bow since I was 8. Never got one before and the includes compound.Yep I like this bow and now maybe i'll slow down in all the bow swapping   :biglaugh:        :rolleyes:  <><>

Just your luck Frank.  Save money by finding the bow of your dreams and dropping out of the bow buying market.  But now you'll spend all your extra cash on arrows!  :biglaugh:

Very cool! Congrats Frank!

That is a good looking bow and some mighty fine shooting too!!

Any idea where a guy might get some of those super cool antler bolts?????

oh yeah baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Guys. I a have a zipper SXT coming this week and I wanna shoot it bad. Then I will thin the herd. But this bow and the SXT will stay I am sure of that as will the zipper TD recurve  got last week. I wanna get down to 6 bows. Whip I might just have to come shoot with you... and barrow your arrows LOL. It's been a great month. last weekend me and Shells Brother were coming back  from moving stands and see this in the farmers field. The way my hunting is going Blasted ATV's this is most likely the only venison i am getting. Yep thats a STIC knife and worked great. The cop that was there to tag it wants a knife now LOL.<><<><

Bill

Frank...you're going to like that Zipper SXT. Picked mine up from Bill at his shop this past summer and it's become my go to bow. One of Mike and Jason's bows is still on my short list also, somewhere down the line. I like your taste in longbows.   :thumbsup:

yeah I always like zippers. From my fisrt one which was a zipstick to my recurves. But like most they went in a swap. but the sxt is just flat out a super looking bow and I know I will love it. As for this Dryad... wow I LIKE IT! The workman ship on the Orion is FANTASTIC those boys know there way around wood.<><

Way to go Frank. Great shooting and a great buck. Sadly my only deer hunting this year was a meatless hunt. LOL I am going for hogs next time I am home.

:clapper:  

I have an Orion LB as well and it is a shooter!  Congrats on the Robinhood, a little bitter of course, but ohh sooo sweet!!

great shooting.glad you like the bow..chris

Frank,

Actually you already made Karim's bolts.  LOL

They are the Dryad Bow logo antler bolts you made for me.

LOL

Mike

Thanks guys. mike I think Karim wants a couple more sets. Mike you guys make a super bow. wow I just put the 43# limbs on it and I shoot it even better. It is thus far one of the  sweetest one of  longbows i have shot in a longtime. And I know it's not going anywhere. the woods are awesome and the dirty bamboo limbs are just FANTASTIC. I can't say enough about the workmanship on this bow. I love it!<><

These firsts are important lessons never forgotten. Each one adds to the collection that is trad. Kind of like those killer knives of yours.

Oh man!  My orion shipped out today and I'm beside myself with anticipation.  It'll be my first attempt at a 3 piece bow (longbow).  Curley Myrtle and goncalo alves riser with spalted curley myrtle veneers over bamboo limbs...Can not wait!!!

You are going to love I bet.<><

Congrats Frank.Great shooting! :thumbsup:

Still looking for my first one.Just got a new silvertip...will be looking for some limb bolts soon from ya. :thumbsup:

:thumbsup:

Dang Frank ya gotta be a little clearer and tell us what ya really think of the bow.  LOL

Mike

Well I love it! It just flat out shoots great!Quiet and good speed for 43# I draw 29 and is is just awesome to shoot. Heck i was out there today doing all kinds of weird shots with it. Hunched over and shooting between trees and through bushes. Not thick ones ya know  the kinda ya might leave up if your hunting on the ground. heck she shoots right on the money every time.Did i mention I love this bow? I will behunting this next week and bunnys ala so. I can't wait for my SXT I know i am going to love it. I am on a ROLL baby!<><
