Title: 1st Custom Bow "Striker"
Post by: Josh Perdue on April 13, 2012, 10:36:00 PM
Waiting on my first custom bow and it is no fun. I should be getting a striker stinger takedown in the next few weeks and cant wait. Met the bowyer at a hunt show in January and ordered one on the spot. I am new to trad and he let me shoot 3 or 4 different models and gave some good pointers. He was super nice and patient. I will post some pics when I receive it.

He said 12-16 weeks when I ordered, looks like some guys on here are waiting up to a year. What bow are you waiting on Rooster?

Waiting is indeed tough.  Those Strikers look like nice bows.

One company I've bought a couple bows from let's you know when the bow is shipped.  But they ship by the absolute slowest way possible.  Thank goodness this isn't the norm - most fellows ship their bows to be received in just a couple of days!
