Got some pics of my bow being built by South Cox of Stalker Recurves. I am so excited I just had to share it with somebody.
But first I would like to say of the 8 custome bows I have had built for me South has been the most pleasant bowyer I have ever worked with... If you want a truly great experience when ordering a bow I would highly recommend South. And I haven't even gotten the bow yet. His customer service I think ranks right up there with Black Widow. I am really looking forward to ordering from him again ... :)
Here is a pic of my riser that he sent me ruff cutt. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v731/stringcutter/IMAG0121-1.jpg)
And of the veneers!!!! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v731/stringcutter/IMAG0123-1.jpg)
And finally the final special touch he is going to artfully put on it to make it a very special one of a kind bow for me. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v731/stringcutter/IMAG0124.jpg)
Looking Good.!..... :thumbsup:
One of my favorite wood combos. Gonna be a beauty.
Can't wait to see the finished product!!!

If you feel just a little excited and little out of control, then there should be a very good reason.
'THIS IS THE TIME!"

South's customer service is top notch. The Tracker longbow I won last Spring in the nicest shooting longbow I have ever shot.
Nice Tommy!!
Congrats Tom,it is a great and personal looking bow,I like those moose antler overlay and tips.
Hey the window is on the correct side as well! :thumbsup:
Stunning!!! A true artist South is, and that moose antler is a classy touch!

You will love the grip! :thumbsup:
Owlbait I test drove one a few months back. The grip fit me like a glove. That was the #1 reason I choose the Stalker... :bigsmyl:
