Title: Big Jim exceeded my expectations
Post by: thump on February 23, 2011, 11:39:00 AM
Ok got some pics of my big Jims bows that just came in .Along with a pic of the grip he put on my fox longbow. Both bows are sap wood coca bola and garbon ebony with horn tips the Buff is 60" 48lb@28 and the TC is 56" 48lb@28 the pics don't do them justice  (http://i754.photobucket.com/albums/xx186/longbow69/DSC01182.jpg) (http://i754.photobucket.com/albums/xx186/longbow69/DSC01181.jpg) (http://i754.photobucket.com/albums/xx186/longbow69/DSC01180.jpg) (http://i754.photobucket.com/albums/xx186/longbow69/DSC01179.jpg)

I ran over Luke's house as soon as he got these in and shot these myself and boy do they shoot. I  may be giving Big Jim a call in the near future.

Luke,
Those are great pictures.  How does the TC shoot?  Beavertail is my fav grip material.

See ya at Comptons.

Chupa your hand sticks to the bow even when wet with the beaver tail grip. You'll need to take it on one of the courses this year at compton. It feels like your drawing back a much longer bow.

I'm really thinking about putting some $ down on a Buffalo bow. They are some good looking bows. And nothing but good reviews on here.

I couldn't hardly stand to look at them!

Oh yes, they are beautiful bows!

But I have seen enough snow this winter another picture of it right now makes me almost want to "puke"!

Sorry to be so graphic...lol

Thanks for sharing your bows with us.

God bless,Mudd
