This Is my New Big River 59er replica by John McDonald. Cocobolo riser, purpleheart i-beam, brown glass limbs and overlays. 60 in 44lbs @ 26in. It is way more than i expected. The bow was finished with a textured look by "BigRiver" Brian. H.

You done buying bows? :laughing:
I believe that piece of Coco was purchased from Roman Hershberger of Hill Country Bows. I shoulda looked at that piece a little closer :banghead:
Glad to see it was well used and went home with a great TGer. Beautiful bow GBKD!!
Awesome bow Rafael! Why stop now. You could always sell some of the other bows.
yep it was, I had more people stop me with that piece of wood than I could count.
Hey Rafeal ... WOW, sexy bow man!! That riser is amazing! I am a sucker for brown glass bows as well ... good on ya brother! :jumper:

Kenny, if it wasn't for Brian .H (BigRiver) that piece of wood would never been made into my bow. What a great, awesome , cool , nice guy Brain is!! I don't care what everyone else thinks or says about him :D :D :D
TTT for a looker
Great looking bow!
Rafael,
I will say it again... AWESOME bow!
That is the nicest piece of Coco I have ever seen !
There were three bows made with the same piece of coco.
Pretty bow, congrats!
Awesome bow! Love it!
Amazing Rafael, no wonder you ordered a new bow, how could anyone let that piece of wood be anything else. Everytime I think I'm done buying another bow I see one of your newest bows and get the bug again. I guess I better shoot one of those 59'rs one of these days. Congrats on a classic.
.
Nice bow.....great design that old 59......! Now ya' need a 5 line strike plate and a TRAP feather rest.......then you'll be a tall dog in short grass.
WoW! That is a Beauty :thumbsup: KY :archer:
