Title: I got a call today from Leon Stewart! (PICS ADDED)
Post by: longbow fanatic 1 on April 02, 2014, 06:47:00 PM
The bow I ordered in Oct. 2013 is being shipped. It's an LS Longbow with a Brazilian Rosewood riser, Curly Teak limb back, Yew belly and Birdseye Maple cores.

Leon said it turned beautifully and it's dead quiet! It will be here Monday or Tuesday. I'll share some pics when it arrives.

Sooo nice.  Leon's the man!!  I KNOW it shoots as good as it looks!

I spoke to him yesterday, my Lil Slammer 56 should be ready in just a matter of weeks.  We talked and he's gonna jazz it up a bit from my original specs with some cool wood accents, I really enjoy letting him do his art- give him a general idea and just say 'go for it Leon, make it so!'

  :thumbsup:    :archer2:

Great news, Chuck! It will be here before you know it. Leon sure does add some cool accents to his bows.

I have a Slammer and it is a true work of art and can spit and arrow! Leon is really a craftsman... Congradulations to you guys.
