Title: New costum Big River!
Post by: papawoody on May 03, 2012, 08:44:00 PM
My new custom longbow, Built by John McDonald, Big River bows.  Cocobolo riser, bocote lams back and belly, With an osage sight window.  Not only is she pretty, she shoots great.    (http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/x370/woody283/0503121855a.jpg)[/IMG]

The osage was a total suprise, But i love it. This is the third Big river I own now. Johns not getting any younger so I had to order a custom.
