Hi Gang,
I was able to buy a 2nd hand Peregrine! They DO excist afterall! I bought it from a German friend who had it for a few months. He bought it from a fellow Tradganger here. The beauty is, I wasn't looking for it but just received a mail if I was interested!
The bow is 48lbs@28", so it will easily exceed 50 lbs at my drawlenght. It is not even one year old and like new.
It has crema etimoe limbs, Elk antler riser and tips, a brown bevertail, premium riser with Birds Eye Maple and Pau Ferro.
I consider myself very luckey! My German friend and me will meet in the end of May, so I will still have to wait another two months. But thats nothing compared to a year at least!
I know you guys want pics, so here they are!

WOW nice bow!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice bow!!!! Where on earth did all those monster bucks come from?
awesome bow! tell us more about whitetails in the netherlands, good deer...
Great looking bow. Not to get off subject, but those mounts in the background look like whitetails...and some monster bucks at that. Do you all have whitetails over in Europe? My only time spent in The Netherlands has always been layovers in the airport...so never did get out and about to see any game.

Those pics are misleading. Those are NOT Dutch pics. I think I got the pics which the first owner sended to my German friend. My German friend sended them to me.
So those are original genuine good old US Whitetails!
(But I whished I shot them)
We do have deer in The Netherlands, and big species too, but we are not allowed to hunt them. That's a darned shame!
Maybe Darrens house?? Beautiful bow.
I get this bow from Swinestalker. Btw great guy!! So it must be his monster bucks.....
Before I bought my Cari-bow Lynx, I searched here and read your reviews. I totally understand why you like them so much. The grip is so comfortable it feels like part of my arm and they are nice to look at when you get tired of shooting. That new bow of yours looks great!
Very nice!
Hey Ad
You got got it,that's great news for you. Congratulations!! :clapper: :goldtooth: :archer2:

Abe,
Please put it in overdrive and get mine finished!!!! Just joking, a bow that beautiful and sweet deserves the wait so you can appreciate the craftsmanship from a top notch bowyer like Abe. Congrats on the find Dutchman I'm jealous!
Congrats
Very nice bow !, I came across a Featherhorn a couple of weeks ago, and it's becoming my go to bow. I can understand how you feel about such a nice find.
Good luck with it.
Beautiful bow
I keep coming back to this thread just to look at the pictures and imagine how one is going to feel in my hands!
Lol, Not my place....... congrats on the bow, she is a bute !!!!
That is a nice bow. You will like Hubert , He is my good friend.
God bless you all, Steve
This was my original bow that I bought from Abe at the Kalamazoo MI Bow Expo in January of 2011. Swinestalker bought it from me and I think those are all his nice bucks. It is a rocket ship for sure and a beauty.
A bow that nice deserves a permanent home.
God bless you all, Steve
