Title: HOPE AND FAITH OF HILL COUNTRY
Post by: Terry Green on July 10, 2012, 12:11:00 PM
Contact curt@tradgang.com  WITH....1st Choice Month and what animal(s) you are planning on hunting - 2nd Choice month and what animal(s).... and your first and last name and PHYSICAL address for UPS shipments.  ALL in ONE email to curt@tradgang.com.


Going a little heaver this year....Hope is 64#s@28 and Faith is 61#s@28.

Since we have done 56, 53 and 50 pounds, I made the decision to make these gals a little more 'voluptuous'.      :D    


A I need to get these bows hunting...and need to get them out of here this month....so, ...

1st off, I need a right handed and a left handed hunters Immediately. Please note, we want these bows HUNTING so if you sign up for a month, please designate that time to hunting with this bow.

Please email me your name and physical address, and what month you would like to hunt, and if you have a 2nd choice month, let us know that as well.

June will be the last month they hunt....then the last hunters will ship the bows to the St Jude winners....

Please Note again....if you are not going to HUNT the bow, don't sign up.  This efforts is to get hunting stories and pics to go along with the bow for mojo for the St Judes Auction.

The schedule is not 1st come 1st serve....we try and work out the schedule the best we can and draw or flip if there's 2-3 or 4 wanting the same month.  So, don't be mad if you are the 1st to email Curt and don't get 'drawn'....the fairest way to to make sure everyone gets notice that slots are available.

I'll start another thread soon introducing these curvy gals later...     :campfire:

I am sure that people are going to be jumping all over this.  I won't be able to this year, but interested people may want to know the length and model of the bow.  I am sure that it will be a great shooter.  Have heard nothing but good things about them.

Or maybe I could be patient and wait for the follow up post.

Good to talk to you Terry, I am still thinking about an August hunt with Hope.

What is her length?

These are the 56" "Cree" 1 pc recurve.

I sent an e-mail to Curt. That 56" will fit nice in an antelope blind.

I'm in Terry! Thank's for the offer!  :thumbsup:

I had the opportunity to shoot a 42# Cree a while back.  What a pleasure to shoot!  That little bow really smoked an arrow.  It would be absolutely amazing to see a 60#+ one of these launch an arrow.

Whomever is lucky (and strong) enough to hunt these will not be disappointed.

I have to admit that they are too rich for me to date though too.  However, it's tempting to start working out!

Yes...like I said...all the other years before they were 56 down to 49...so we decided to do some 60 and that's how they came out.

Ken....I think Curt has a few on the list...

I had an email asking if these bows would handle a 31" draw. The answer is these bows were not designed for that long of a draw. It's possible they could withstand it, but Roman doesn't recommend it. 29" would be fine, maybe a bit past that.
He can build a 56" bow, in this weight range, that could, but that wasn't the intent here.

Sorry Mike.  :biglaugh:  

The B&W Ebony is getting very close to dry though. The limb material is at about 11% (we want 8%) and the riser block is around 18%. I may be able to send you the bow you tried out if that will work for you.

Ken - you know i am just kidding - that ebony bow will be a one of a kind and i can wait!!

I am trying to make what i have work for the august trip - but if not i may take you up on that offer.  As I said before i have not found a 56" bow that shoots like that Bobcat.

Here are some pics of Hope. Never took any of Faith before I shipped them to Terry. I'm sure when Terry gets a minute he'll add some.
