Title: New Predator Logo on Riser
Post by: rraming on February 10, 2012, 05:01:00 PM
I ordered another Predator, got a little delayed with the new metal riser and trade show but it finally came today. Has the new Wolf logo on the riser. A few less lbs than my other but she is a "looker". I won't tell you the woods since I don't want any copy cats out there, you'll have to guess - ha!

rraming, excellent choice.  She's a looker and performer.  Ron and Mike have got their act together.

THAT....is a sharp looking riser!   :thumbsup:  It has almost a contemporary look to it.  What type of finish material did he use? That is a first class finish. Kirk

Good looking bow.

Is the logo a stick-on or is it inlayed?

The riser is lower where the emblem is, it is not a medallion, looks like they stamp it somehow and then finish over it, not a round sticker either.

I have asked about the finish before and got no answer, must be an inside secret, appears to be the same as all the others-satin.

Great shooting bows! It looks like Wenge, Shedua and Zebra on the Limbs with a Bubinga accent stripe.

Man... taht is a purdy one!  I ordered a custom Predator with Bacote limbs (two sets, 43#@30" and 54#@30") and a bacote/shedua riser with the ladder stripe, all exotic woods.  It will be waiting at my house when I get back from Afghanistan at the end of the month.  No offense, but I really liked their old logo with the profile of the Predator Recurve stamped on it.  I hope mine has that one, but since it is being delivered after yours, it will probably have the new logo.  That profile is like no other bow.  That is a great looking bow.  That riser have the new resin impregnated maple?  It's supposed to be really stable wood, nearly impervious to temps and moisture.
Congrats on an awesome bow.
Have you had the opportunity to shoot it much yet?  Give us a report!
