I have already been to his website and watched the slide show. I am ordering one and cant make up my mind on which woods.
Join the club! I have waffled over what wood to get, and every time a new bow is posted, it just gets worse. I think I'm sticking with juniper, at least for today. Tomorrow may be different. The little fella doesn't make it easy to choose.
Can't go wrong with Ziricote in a riser. This Tiger Myrtle is really beautiful too.

I just ordered a 2pc ThunderChild in Black Myrtle. It should be another Big Jim Stunner.
Danny, very nice bows. Everytime I think about it I change my mind. I see you are from Sayreville, I was born and raised in Manasquan. Thanks for the pics.
I don't have the pretty pictures Danny has, but mine is juniper and osage.

Thanks Doeslayer. I'm not from Sayreville, just been stuck here way too long. I'm originally from Cleveland, Ohio. The Home-Port placard on the transom of my sailboat, which is my home, is Manasquan.
Varmint101 that is a sweet Buff! Juniper is a beautiful wood, and it looks perfect with the Osage.
Juniper and osage! Wow! What a great combo!

Tell him u want the grey plywood! He will know what ya mean. It really don't matter what woods you pick. Its gonna look good and shoot even better. Just tell him what bow you want and what weight and tell him to surprise ya.
