After years of dealing Jack's bows and owning a Stealth T/D...my last request was for a one piece longbow. The bow arrived early today....it's Jack's Trophy Hunter Longbow...58" 55# at 27"...57# at 28".
Riser is Cocobolo, Limbs are Yew under clear glass. This is the most prettiest yew I have seen. Rich amber color (pics don't do justice) and the Cocobolo looks great. I ran about 30 arrows out of it tonight....wow....can't wait for the fall...

Great looking bow Joe, Yes I agree the Yew is awesome. Hope she is a real killer.
Break a leg this fall with that beauty Joe.
Just great Joe! Just as soon as i get a nice Bow from Jack , you have to get a nicer one eh!!?? Baby :) LOL.
Shes a beauty Joe. :clapper: :clapper:
Joe,
That sure is nice, puts me in mind of the Schafer / Wensel story when Paul gave Barry a bow, had his name mispelled, "Barry Bensel" I believe. Makes it that much more special I suppose and unique. Been thinking of getting a longbow from Jack when I come up in the spring. Let me know how she shoots please sir ...
Many thanks,
Lanier
Joe,
Thats a great looking bow.
I know you will break it in right.
Good Luck...
Randy
Great looking bow Joe. Jack did a nive job on it!
Pretty spanky Joe!
Wow, what a great looking bow! If it shoots half as good as it looks... you're on your way to some real fun this hunting season. Jack is a real gem! Friends make this trad thing what it is, an Outstanding Fraternity!!!
Enjoy in good health & happy trails!!!
She is sweet Joe.
Nice wood combo,love that cocobolo.
Nice one Joe, don't get any more special mojo than that! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Spent some time shooting it again today...surprised how well the 600gr AD Trad Lites fly. The 2117's come off real clean as do the 50-55# barrel tapred ash.
After shooting left handed since Feb...this RH bow is a nice break. I really love that rich amber color of yew. Not sure how much time I'll be in woods this fall but this bow will be right there along with my Lefty one piece recurve...if it arrives before hunting season.... :dunno: :confused:
Very nice Joe. Love the wood combo.
The Signature makes it that much more special. I'm sure the bow will keep you smiling for a long time coming. Enjoy

No problem Stiffrod...nothing I like better than being in a group passing bows around for shootin.
Haven't got my Jersey tags yet...hopefully head down this week or next and meet Mikey. Good luck this weekend Tom..
Thank You Skipper! Same to "THE TRI-STATE TERRORS" :thumbsup: :archer: Let's get together soon! WildCat Ridge is now open Early Season. Gotta wack a doe first. Then you can shoot a Buck. After that unlimited does. Hec you have Zone 5 close to Mikey's Camp though. Stiffrod. Hey Mitchell you better hurry up and order one! Jacks not getting any younger! :biglaugh:

I'm not one to give names to my bows like quite a few guys do...BUT...I'll start calling this one "JK" in honor of Jack... :archer2:
