Pretty bow Dave, wasn't to sure about the longer risers on your bows at first, but the looks are sure starting to grow on me.

Cool looking bow Dave!   :thumbsup:    :clapper:

Todd: If you get the chance to shoot one of Dave and Tracey's bows, you won't be disappointed! I am the most accurate with my ST Joe than any other bow I've shot. Been out hammering away at my target almost every evening since getting it in mid July and already have de-fletched about 9 arrows.   :rolleyes:

Wannabe1, have shot Dave and Traceys bows, really nice feel and shot them pretty well at Kzoo, bows feel really nice in your hand, just liked the shorter risers more, but am really starting to like the looks of the longer narrow riser on there bows. Might have to explain my need for one more bow to my wife in the near future. Todd

Good luck with that my friend! Mine didn't go over so well at first but, once the boss saw the finished product, well lets just say, she liked the Purple heartwood.   :bigsmyl:

I like that one too. Can't wait to see what mine will look like. But it is going to be hard to get the long bow away from me.

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!     :saywhat:  

 The longer riser and shorter working limbs make for quick limb recovery.    ;)  
 I admit, I wasn't sure about such a long riser at first but I tell ya, it makes for a very stable, quick and quiet bow!!   :archer2:
