Title: Another Two Tracks work of art. Ambush - Maple/Walnut
Post by: Smokey84 on November 26, 2011, 02:10:00 PM
Chuck, thank you so much for the time and effort you put into this bow, I couldn't be happier with the way it turned out.  I won't go on about the kind of guy Chuck is because I know he hates to hear how much of a good guy he is.  :) .   Those that don't know him all you need to know is he is a absolute pleasure to deal with and if you have any question about his workmanship, see the pictures below.  

I have to thank my good friend Pierre from SBD strings for introducing me to Chuck at Denton Hill this year too. He and I talked about wood combinations all summer and without him I wouldn't own this amazing piece of art. He knows exactly how to tune anything I shoot. He's ability to take any bow and tune it for the individual shooting it is nothing less than amazing.  

I'll just let the pictures do the talking. Chuck, I can't thank you enough.

Pictures don't even come close to doing this bow justice guys. I'm honored to be holding such a stunning creation. The best part is it shoots even better than it looks.   I have a bow and a new friend that will last a lifetime.   I spend all night watching the WVU game shooting it in the basement.  :D

Post by: jsweka on November 27, 2011, 06:32:00 PM
I can appreciate all the exotic hardwoods bowyers use, but my preference is still for the domestic hardwoods such as maple (curly, quilted, & birdseye), walnut, and black cherry.  

Two Tracks nailed it on that one!

Chuck, I know guys who would give $800 - $1200 for that piece of walnut big enough to get a shotgun stock out of it   :)  

So when are you going to make an Ambush (or Sneaky Pete) in a 54" that likes a 29+" draw?
