Chad Holm PM'd me and said my new Osprey will be shipped this week, Cocobolo with an Osage "I" beam, Tamo ash lams, boo cores and antler tips. To say I'm excited is an understatement! 62"-52# @ 30" and I am ready for the weather to break and get shooting my new hunting companion :wavey: .
You make me sick! jealous is an understatement ! Trades ? LOL
:biglaugh: Don't think I'm ready to trade just yet,I would like to see it first........
Alright,Alright ! Open the pkg.then phone me right away !LOL
AWESOME another bow for me to shoot!!!!
Ron, Personally I hope it stinks!
No offense, I just dont want to have to go and buy another bow :readit:
Cant wait till it gets here.
Folks here is a man who has shot 100's of bows, this only the 2nd custom bow he has ever ordered.
Sounds like a nice bow to take on a Elk hunting trip!
I would love this to become my go to bow.....it will look good at 9,000 feet in Colorado. I betting it will shot well also!
If it shoots anything like your River Runner, you will not need anymore bows. ever... :readit:
Don't worry Ron, I dont think you have anything to worry about.
Ron Congrats on the new Bow, an Osprey from Chad. Sound like an awesome bow. Don't let it disappear into Steve's harem. Sounds like he thinks he needs more bows. How many Bows can one man shoot or own (per my wife). But Who really cares. We all have needs.
When it comes I'll get a photo or 2 to show it off!!
I'll drop it off at the post office this morning at 8:30 when they open. Thanks Ron. Chad
Ya-hoooooooo!! It's come'n :goldtooth:
Don't forget the pics!
Ron, I'm sure you will enjoy your Osprey. I bought one from Chad at Denton Hill last summer.It's a 60", 44# at 28" and I love it. It's quick, quiet and dead in the hand. I want to try a River Runner if Chads at Denton this summer and maybe make a purchase. What are the thoughts on yours?
DaveP
Sounds like a real looker. With woods like that it won't get lost with your other dozens of bows on that rack.
Congrats!
I think 4-5 days Ron from the upper mid west.
I'll be paying you a visit next tuesday :bigsmyl:
Charlie bring your camera.....lol!
Went to the post office just before lunch today and there was this tube...........So I bring it home and open it up............All I can say is WOW. I want to thank Chad Holm for building me just what I asked for. I'll see if I can get some pics up this weekend. It's a blizzard outside so I have to wait to shoot it, but just looking at it is OK for now.
Arrrrrggggg!! I wanna see that coco-osage I beam riser. :bigsmyl: Bob
The riser came out very nice Bob!!!
Can't wait to see a pic! That sounds like some awesome wood combos for sure.
i can stop down early afternnon to take a few pic's unless charlie gets there first!
That would be great....pics won't do it justice, but we can try.......
Maybe I'll get out of my driveway and come over ( I had a 4 foot plow bank when I came home :mad: :readit: ). We'll see what tomorrow brings. :bigsmyl:
Not what I was hoping for toward the end of cottontail season.
I'm excited for you Ron
ok where we going to go shoot today? i have to do a few things this morning but will be home by 10:30. perhaps inside at Pine Tree?
OK you've played with it enough,( Wheres the beef).
Yeah, come on! :campfire:
Waiting on the camera experts....did just come back in from shooting it. I'm really pleased. Seems to have good early string weight and it's smooth right to 29+". My 525 gr cedars are flying like darts. Just a bit of fine tuning and I should be good to go!!
i'm in Rockwood right now, mother needs the roof shoveld! can stop later tonight.
Adkken ,you better come take some pics before these guys string me up!! :biglaugh:
Ron, I was pooped after shoveling.
You had just better get that camera back from Georgia :laughing:
i'll tell ya what if this bow shoots 1/4 as good as it looks to quote Ron "ohhhhh boy!!!"

Vey Nice
Thanks for doing the pics Ken, as good as they came out they really don't do it justice. Been shooting it a bit and if I get a crack at an Elk this fall, it's in trouble!!!!! :thumbsup: Thank you Chad Holm!!!
let me tell ya Ron is right the pic's DO NOT do it justice by a looooong shot. i will take more pic's as soon as we get a good day in the woods, really need some outdoors pic's to show of these woods, inside pic's are not going to do it! Chad did a SUPREME job putting this bow together!
Ron, That bow looks great cant wait to see it in person.
Glad you ordered it, you deserve it! :thumbsup:
Shots his bows at KaZoo, real shooters!
Thanks for the pics,worth waiting for.
I'm glad you like the bow, Ron. I think it turned out nice too. The Tamo Ash is darker then the flash makes it look. Your a great customer to work with and I appreciate your business. Chad
Ron, Thats a great looking bow. I hope that you really enjoy it. Now I'm really looking forward to trying out a River Runner if Chad is at Denton Hill this summer.
Have fun with the Osprey.....DaveP
Just went out this afternoon and ran some 750 Gr. laminated birch thru the bow. Holy cow it likes them and it really smacks the target with authority. I just happen to have some with broadheads, they may get some use this fall...lol!
No shooting today...it's pouring out. Got the bow tuned pretty good and it is impressive!!
Fine piece of work Chad!!
I just picked up a used one from the classifieds. It is a real nice shooting bow. Seems pretty fast and is built real well. Pretty to look at too.
I love Bow Porn! LOL
hey Ron do ya want me to bow sit while your away????
I don't think she's your type...... :biglaugh:
she has fine curves! i'm sure we would get a long well.
PRETTYY..NICE,CONGRATS
Sweet looking bow!!! Bet it shoots great!!!
WOW!
She's a beauty for sure.. :thumbsup:
Been running some arrows thru it .....it's good!Trying some different bow quivers on it....it don't seem to care!
Another fine bow from Brainard!! Chad does a great job! Have fun with that one Ron!
