Title: My new Green Viper!
Post by: tr23489 on June 01, 2011, 10:35:00 AM
Just got this from Jerry at Great Northern and wanted to share!  It's a really awesome little bow! It's the first "Old School" one that he did with skins.  I also got a new Blacktail back in January after a 13 month wait that is a reall beauty.  Pics to follow.  Hope this works, my first time trying pictures.

I *like* the Green Viper!

Remember -- a viper must have venom!

Enjoy!

Shoot straight, Shinken

Laying on the deck railing I mistook it for a real snake!

Nice looking bow bud    :)

Well named! What do you feed it? I know venison!

Hopefully, it will be fed a steady diet of venison, squirrel, rabbit and anything else that I'm lucky enough to hit!  Frogs and other snakes aren't out of the question, either!

My issue of "A Walk in the Woods" (the summer issue of the Comptons publication) came yesterday, and there is an advertisement for the Great Northern "Old School" bows in it.

Just as LONGSTYKES said..."green is in"!!!

Great looking bow tr23489! It forces your eyes to stop and check it out.

Best of luck with it!  :campfire:

Thanks guys.  What is equally inmpressive is how it shoots.  The handle is small and fits right in my hand.  The arrow sits right on top of your hand.  Really is "Old School."  This thing hits hard.  I haven't tuned it yet with the exact arrow, but it shoots where I aim.

Love that green and skin combo.

I had a super ghost and let it go. Wish I had it back sometimes.
