preciate it guys..gotta finish tuning it..but its awfully hot here.  maybe i can get out and get it set right today..so far it shoots great and hits hard.

with this bow, where should i start at for douglas fir arrows?  i wanna get some to hunt with and want to shoot 160-200 gr heads..or drop back to 125 and shoot mag. 1 glue ons....but have no clue where to start with wood shafts

Congrats!!  I was looking at them at ATAR, very nice looking bows.  I was to busy shooting his one peice longbow to every shoot the three peice.

well, if you wanna save $$$, dont touch a 3 pc!  the 3 pc bows have the mass weight i like..hecn why i went with the "plywood" on this bow.  they shoot clean and have no feeling afterwards.  very solid and stable shooter

I was going to talk to him at the IBO world about one but he did not show.

Really pretty bow. Wonder if he can make recurve limbs for it too?
Title: Re: pics of my new big jim 3 pc
Post by: SveinD on July 23, 2010, 07:24:00 AM
That's one of the best looking lines I've ever seen on a 3pc! Big Jim truly knows his work!
Title: Re: pics of my new big jim 3 pc
Post by: BigJim on July 26, 2010, 08:56:00 PM
Eric- I regret missing the IBO but was unable to make it and still get to ETAR in one piece. We would have gotten home monday morning and then had to leave for a 20 hour drive tuesday morning.
Instead, I felt it best to spend that time makeing bows.

ETAR was great by the way.

thanks for the nice words, BigJIm

Just ordered one at Denton Hill, should have it for the late season. Good lookin bow

Post by: COMBER on July 26, 2010, 10:00:00 PM
I ordered another one and I'm gonna call BigJim everyday until it arrives five months from now. BigJim has the smoothest bows I've ever shot hands down and I've got no idea how he does it. I better not see one more of BigJims posts until my bow arrives. He needs to building bows and not screwing around on the computer. "You hear me BigJim" (LOL)
Thanks,
      Jake
