Since there are a couple of threads floating around here about some Ebony Big Foots, I thought I would show you mine. Kirk gave a sneak peek of it a few weeks back, here is the finished product. It's Black & White Ebony, 60" Sasquatch, it's a takedown, but has the hidden limb bolts so nothing shows on the back of the bow. A really cool feature.
As the rest of Kirk's bows, it shoots really nice, workmanship is top notch and he was a great guy to deal with throughout the process.
I haven'g had much time to take pics, so these are some that Kirk sent just prior to shipping, with the exception of the one with the arrow. I took this after my first shot at 15 yards with it. I had Kirk put a insert in the riser for a Hog & Varmit light, in case your wondering about the light on the bow.
Kirk may can post some more pics if he gets time. RW

That is pretty darn cool looking!
You guys posting your bigfeet aren't making my wait any easier...lol
WOW Roy. That is a stunning bow. The Black/White Ebony is really nice.
The hidden limb bolts are pretty cool too.
What is the draw weight?
You reckon that thing might kill a pig?
Congrats on a beautiful bow.
that came out real nice
That bow is crazy fine. That Kirk is putting out some fine sticks.
Billy: Thanks, Kirk has built some very nice ones lately. I got Kirk to build it to my actual draw lenght, came out 52# @ 29 1/2". I have no dought it will take down the baddest pig out there. See you in a couple weeks. RW
WOW!! Thats Awful Purty!! Congrats!
gorgeous, I have no doubt that my next bow will be entirely black and white ebony, so pretty.
Very nice bow
Just beautiful! :thumbsup: :clapper:
Sweet looking rig!Enjoy!
AWSOME !!!! Congrats on a great bow. :thumbsup:
that is a very cool looking bow !!
That's very sweet R.W. I need to ask Kirk to put a bushing for a screw in light on mine too! Are the hidden limb bolts provided on all Sasquatchs ???
What limb veneers did you choose, are they action boo cores with B/W Ebony?
Ok, that does it. Black & white ebony is no doubt my favorite wood for vaneers.
My God that thing is nice!If she shootd half as good as she looks you got a winner.Have heard nothing but good about Kirks bows.
Awesome just Awesome!
black and white ebony does make a great looking bow!!
Buck: The hidden limb bolts are an option but are really nice. I think you will like the look.
The veneers are B&W Ebony with action boo core, couple strips of carbon in each limb as well. I got a serious new hog light, can't wait to try it out. RW
Beautiful bow Roy, I JUST made an order with Kirk TODAY. After looking at yours I may be making some updates/changes. Kirk said I could expect it sometime in May. Bigfoot bows seem to be coming on strong........good reason! He may get busier and busier!!
Just like real life, pretty attracts big hogs! :D If you can get a can of cream corn on the end of the light it will be the Ultimate Hog Bow!! That is beautiful wood. Congrats to you and Kirk. :thumbsup:
Here's a few more photos for you Roy. Glad you like her. :)
These are what i call blind limb mounts, with a chevron overlay. the limb bolts stay inside the riser and tighten though the small holes on the bell ramps below those bear tracks.

Pretty cool design! I like it.
:thumbsup:
"Delicious" is what comes to mind when I look at that bow.
Black & White Ebony possesses its own mystique.
In conjunction with Kirk's magic, you have a captivating beauty.
Congrats!
Now you need to rig a cord that switches the light on at full draw! Like a clicker but with a light...The hogs(or coons...I love spotlighting coons) would never know what hit em!
The light accually has a short piece of wire with a switch on the end of it. It has some velcro attached to the switch and has some you put on your riser so it stays in place while you draw. We usually hold the bow up above the horizon, turn on the light and slowely lower it so you don't hit em with all the light at one time. Works great on varmits and hogs, coons are a hoot to hunt. Google up hog lights if you want to see the set up. RW
Here's a picture of one of the switch buttons on these. This particular switch button was too large, so i sent it back. the new one i purchased is a lot slimmer. I'll try and get a better photo with it mounted on my grip.
