Awesome, I'm seriously considering ordering a bow from this site and was wondering what your total wait time was from the time you placed your order?

Thanks.

Thanks guys  :)

I sure hope it shoots good. I have heard nothing but good things about their craftsmanship and their shootability.

I got on the waiting list in April 2012

That thing is beautiful!  Congratulations!

I got on the waiting list April 2013.  Scott told me the wait was at least a year... and up to 3 years if he winds up building a bow for everyone on the list.

Hmm...looks like a 59/60 replica to me...the main way to tell the two apart is the black and white overlay and limb tips on a 60...either way those are great bows to build a replica from...it does appear the sight window is an inlay and not a fade to fade i-beam like the originals...you are going to love shooting that bow Joe...I just put a fastflight string on one of my

I will finish that last sentence>>>>1960 Kodiaks and it is hard to believe how much quieter and vibration free that makes it...it is a 1000 dollar collectible and it is going hunting with me again...I took it out of the rotation for a while but that was just silliness on my part...and with the crash in the collectible bow values it is now more like a 600 dollar collectible anyway

It is a 59 with differences. I wanted a nice burl peice of wood for the arrow shelf; and I didn't want the leather grip; so I opted for no I-Beam contruction. I choose the Black glass and Black and White overlays because in my opinion the contrast looks better than the red and white.

Joe,
Congrats and you most definetly should be a bow wood consultent cause you know what wood makes a bow  look good...My favorite is still that    RER with the olive ash burl and Ziricote but then again I like the  burl in the shelf  plate on this one ...                               :thumbsup:
