Title: Don't know if it gets much better...
Post by: JL on February 13, 2011, 04:39:00 PM
I got a thing for good lookin and shootin bows. Picked up this Blacktail TD today that is made of Murtle footed with cocobola and purpleheart accents, 48@28" and 64" long. I shot this bow last year at Sawmill, one thing lead to another and I finally made it happen. Boy, am I glad I did. Just came in from taken her for a walk on the woods killin stumps. I have alway been a brunette guy myself but I got a thing for this blonde...

That's a pretty bow. Blacktails are "lookers".     :thumbsup:  Of course, I'm biased.    ;)

Fabulous Blacktail, I really like the contrast between the riser woods.  Blacktails are always easy on the eyes, but that one is a real showpiece...

JL-  That is my favorite Blacktail.  Bottom center on Norm's footed page , I believe.  How does it compare with your other Blacktails?  Is it a lot lighter than your snakebit?  How about the smoothness, handshock, noise, etc.  I have one on order for later this summer and this is the bow I had wanted but changed my mind when I ordered.  Went with coco footed with ebony(may change to wenge)and myrtle limbs.  This site and all of the pictures of these Blacktails are killing me and my checkbook.
