Title: First Custom Bow in 15 Years (Stalker Recurve)
Post by: Ben Tiller on February 19, 2012, 05:11:00 PM
I'm sure if you did a search of the archives you'd find me rippin' "plywood" bows on numerous occasions.  But when it came down to ordering a new bow for Africa, for some reason I was drawn to the old actionwood.  Here is my new Surge from Stalker Recurves.  South was awesome to work with.  I may never order another bow from anyone else.  I have a custom Kanati quiver on order.  I'll post more pictures when it gets here.

The bow is 60" long, 61# at 28".  I won't be shooting any dangerous game.  I really just had this psychological block for shooting anything less than 60# in Africa.  Maybe I just needed an excuse for a new bow.
