I got a call a few days ago from Jim that my bow was in the mail! Well she arrived today, and to say the least I'm still amazed at she turned out!! Bacote venneers and ziracote(spelling??). I've shot her a little today(well alot!lol) and she shoots better than I do!! Thanks Jim I couldn't ask for more!!!

That guy comes up with some of the best looking wood to make his bows with. Great guy to deal with and really has taken a big piece of the market in the last 5 years.
A really nice looking bow, Roy
