Great Bows Absolutly Great Bows

What do you want to know. I think that mine is the first custom one and the third one built.

It is smooth and fast. A different draw than a wood or glass core.

What are you specificlly wanting to know?

Sorry for the blurry pictures.

That will be my next order from Herb.

What length is your's Randy?

I'm thinking about going with a 62", green stained hickory riser with green glass limbs.

Wow nice pic - how does it differ from the standard (red elm) Pronghorn?

My compairison would be that the draw is different. Both are a smooth draw but do to how the foam limbs are ground it draws differently. There is almost no stack even when I draw way past my normal anchor. At full draw the limbs have a different profile than the Elm or boo limbs.

I like the bow, but I like that bull elk a lot more. You did very well, Randy. Congratulations on both the bow and the bull.

By the way, where (generally) did you get the bull?
