Title: got a call from Big Jim today
Post by: TexasStick81 on January 02, 2012, 02:53:00 PM
Well it's official, my name has come up and my new Big Jim TC is on the way.  I hope to be posting some pics in a few weeks when it arrives.  I'm going on a hog hunt MLK weekend so if it makes it by then maybe they'll be pics with a nice boar  :)

Cool! What veneers? I saw some redwood veneers he bought at Compton's but haven't seen any pics of them on anyones bow yet, and they looked really unique.

Owlbait, I saw those redwood veneers too at Compton, they are beautiful, he did have a few pics of a in-stock bow on his website that had the redwood burl.

Ask coaster about the redwood.
I think he likes em too.

Limbolt, your TC is in the spray booth and your Scout missed weight. the new one will come out of the oven tomorrow.

Jim put an extra coat on it to keep saliva from soaking in!

I ordered back in June.  I went with cocobolo that he's been holding for me and gaboon in the handle.  Springbok tips and back and, of course, beaver tail grip.  2 piece TC, 50@28

That's cool, I ordered the first week in July so I should be getting a call soon also. I'm thinking a thunder child with bocote and Osage.  I can't wait!
