Title: NEW from Firefly Bows: The Firefly FX Phenolic!
Post by: SlowBowinMO on May 09, 2010, 06:42:00 PM
Hello Trad Gang,

We've got something new from Jim Jones at Firefly Bows. Jim now offers the "Firefly FX Phenolic" for your consideration.  The new bow features a "Phenolic I-Beam" riser which produces incredible strength and rigidity for maximum performance and durability.  The phenolic also results in a bow with a bit more mass, plus the contrasts can make for some stunning good looks as well.   :thumbsup:

I'm posting some full size pics for you to get a good look at this beauty.  This bow features Lacewood sideboards and limb veneers.   :D

WOW!  That is incredibly nice work!

Is there a place to learn about wood options and pricing?

Shoot straight, Shinken

This one is black phenolic, I apologize the glare can give a blue-ish hue in the photo's.

The Firefly FX Phenolic's are priced at $759.  You can see the specs on this bow (in stock now) here:

  Firefly Bows in stock at Braveheart Archery (http://www.braveheartarchery.us/new_page_22.htm)  

If you'd like to contact Jim about having him make one just for you, he can be reached at:

fireflybow@yahoo.com

Since the phenolic is doing the heavy work I imagine Jim could use just about any wood for sideboards to compliment it.

I generally keep my hands off the stock bows but I couldn't stand it with this one, I had to put a few arrows through it.   :D    A few turned into...well more than a few.  :help:  

Wow this bow is a shooter!    :thumbsup:
