I purchased this bow from a fellow TG member(fishone)and the deal was flawless as it always is with him, and the majority of TGer's.
58" 50@28 Bacote Riser with Bloodwood accents, and bocote veneers under clear glass and bamboo cores. Jim makes a heck of a bow with the fit and finish to match any bow out there, IMO.
This bow like my other one is just a real pleasure to shoot. Smooth as silk, plenty fast, and super quiet. I put a new SBD string on it, cat wiskers, and she is a shooting machine.
It arrived last Saturday and the following Sunday I shot it at a local indoor 3D, and ended up takeing first place, of all the luck!!!!
Thanks agian to Craig.

Jim is really building some pretty bows!
Awesome looking bow, Jacob! Great shooting, as well. Enjoy your new toy. :thumbsup:
Jake shot real good Sunday, I kept the pressure on him and if it wasn't for that new bow I could have caught him!! NOT!! lol Nice bow, Jim (Firefly Bows) Is a nice fella to deal with, I have one on the rack and one on order. His bows are top quality and are very smooth.
You lucky dog - That one's a beauty!
Love my FireFly!
No luck involved. They are awesome shooting bows. Don't believe I've ever shot a bow better than my Firefly (with the possible exception of the "Little Delta Bow").
I believe I'm going to order some heavier limbs for mine before elk season.
Jerry
That's a looker for sure. Congrats!
Nice Bow man.. Jim makes on heck of a bow..
Man, I sure love that bacote! It has to be the prettiest wood for a bow. Looks like it fits you pretty well too!
Firefly's rock. I love mine. I had the very first 58 incher Jim made. Sold that bow :knothead: I have a 62 inch that has a happy home.
What a nicely grained piece of bocote and that bloodwood really sets it off...Luke
That is a sweet looking bow...congrats :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
By the looks of that group, I'd say that bow is pretty happy with it's new home. :thumbsup:
Congrats :)
FireFlys are awesome shooters, enjoy :D
For my FireFly I also had Pierre from SBD strings here on tradgang to make me some strings and the bow performs even better :thumbsup:
Margly
Outstanding....Beautiful, Jake
Glad to here about those SBD Strings on those FireFlys...
Merry Christmas and God Bless, Pierre and Jean-Pierre
Very nice looking bow and obviously a great shooter as well.
Guess I am going to have to check out one of those Fire Fly's one of these days.
Beautiful bow and good shooting!!
Very nice bow! I like the looks of that riser....Roy
Jake it took ya long enough to listen, LOL..congrats on the bow! Yup Mr. Jones builds some awesome bows, everyone is keep him in the shop too.
awsome looking bow and some awsome shooting
Thanks alot everyone! I appreciate the comments!
Each time I get a new bow, I always seem to forget to post pics. I really enjoy when others take the time so we can all get a look at different bows, so I thought I better get in gear and get some posted.

Drew - LOL!!! Ya now I have 2 and they aint going anywhere! Well......maybe the limbs will for some of Jims new ones with carbon :D
BTW Drew, have you got yours yet, and if so, how do they perform??? Inquiring minds need to know.
Very nice bow,, I like the red stripes
Good looking bow and a nice group!
Nice Jake! Hopefully I'll see it in the next few weeks. Don't let me shoot it :D .
Great bow for sure. I have one on order myself.
Jake,
It looks like you are shooting the Firefly very well. Nice group in the photo. I am glad you like the bow. Jim Jones and Tim at Braveheart Archery are both class acts. I will have another one at sometime with a little less poundage. They are excellent shooters and very quiet. Have fun with that bow.
Craig
Nice bow Jacob and great shooting!
Nice! I love my 60" Firefly and it has a SBD string also. 62" on order now. Great bows!

I hear nothing but great things about Jim's Bows. You proved it big time with your great shooting Congrats! :thumbsup: :clapper:
Beautiful O & U!
Sweet looking bow. I really like those limb veneers! Hope she brings you many hours of enjoyment. :thumbsup: :clapper:
Ouchi-Mamma that is a nice looking bow ! I bought a Firefly from Heydeerman and in my haste traded it as it was a tad heavy for me ,THE biggest regret I've ever had in all my years in archery.Trying to find a used one is as easy as finding a live T-Rex.I know Heydeerman has got another beauty and some day when he has another Lapse I'll be on that bow like a Fat kid on a Jelly Dohnut.Merry Christmas one and all from the great White North.
