Title: New WARF. It's a Beauty!!!
Post by: sgrogg on January 03, 2010, 12:08:00 PM
The mailman delivered my riser yesterday and I couldn't be happier! First, I want to say thanks to Bob Gordon for finishing my riser AFTER he had been stricken with a stroke and loss of vision. I wouldn't have blamed Bob if he had sent the riser back saying he wasn't going to be able to complete it. Instead, he finished it within days of getting home from the hospital and shipped it off. Here are some pics.

It's a Bear, Black Bear.  46@28", 64".  Haven't shot it yet as i'm still recovering from surgery,  Can't wait to take it out for a test drive!

The film dip makes a big difference in looks.  Nice bow.
Sorry to hear about Bob.
He's one of the real nice ones.

Steve,
What is the length of one of those risers?

Very cool. What limbs are those? are they ILF ? I didn't know a warf could be made that short(54")!

Thanks for the kind words everyone.  The 54" was a typo, it's 64".    :knothead:  

Gene, it's a 21" riser.

Yes, they are ILF limbs.  TradTech Black Max, wood/glass.  I really like the looks of the black limbs on the camo riser.
