Wow! I'm just getting done with the "honey do" list and have a few seconds to share. This bow is amazing! I shoot full length 5575 camo shafts, 50 grain brass insert, 5 inch wrap, and 3 5 inch feathers with a 165 Simmons Shark up front. I chrono'd it at 193 fps! I don't know how other designs compare as far as speed itself goes, but the most impressive things to me is how buttery smooth the draw is and the whisper it makes as the string slips off my fingers! This bow is his new stronger design with a custom grip I asked for. She's 64" 51 @ 29, carbon and foam core limbs. I waited almost all year for him to finalize his design and it was worth the wait! Speaking of wait, you guys are going to have to wait until the morning so I can upload and resize the pics so I can post them!

Here she is! 64" 51 @ 29 which is my draw. She shoots a 520 grain arrow at 193 fps. Riser is maccaser ebony in the center, burl cocobolo on the outsides. Carbon and foam core limbs with quilted maple veneers. I kept trying different backgrounds trying to find one to show the true color of the veneers. They're a gray shade but the pictures aren't doing them justice. I've had quite a few of Bob's bows and this is just another example of his craftsmanship and performance. In my opinion you get what you pay for and as always when dealing with Morrison Archery i'm a highly satisfied customer.

My good friend 2Barrels suggested I take some pics without the quiver to show the true beauty. I took pictures on this wrinkled shop towel to add to the images! LOL!

What are the differences between this updated Dakota and the older style Dakota?

Inquiring minds need to know!

Superb looking bow by the way.

He changed the riser design. If you look at different risers you can see what i'm talking about. I shot it again this evening until dark and it's a shooter. I wish everyone luck this season, Tony
