Title: New toy is finished
Post by: tj69 on February 22, 2010, 02:31:00 AM
Got a final photograph from bowyer Andy McCoy
this morning.
The TD Recurve in front is my new toy.
Its a Bezaleel cougar.
I am really looking forward to shoot that bow.
Want to share my pleasure with you.

Yes, its cocobolo and bocote. My favorite woods.Heavy and tough. Limbs are with carbon/bamboo core and cocobolo veneers under clear glass.

Got my parcel from customs today.
The first 100 shots are done and I am excited.
Grip fits perfect, comfortable draw, pretty fast
and absolutely quiet. I never had such a quiet recurve.
I have made the first 4 shots careful from 9 yards and all 4 arrows were within 1" where I wanted it to be.
So I dont have to accustom to that bow, what I normally have to do with a new bow. I can take the cougar and shoot like I already have it for months. Great. Thanks a lot to Andy McCoy for giving that pleasure to me.
Here you can see some more pics:
