Title: About to purchase a new bow
Post by: RodL on August 27, 2014, 10:27:00 PM
I'm on the verge of getting George from Rainy Day bows to build me a bow. I have been emailing him along with South Cox from Stalker, both men have been top notch in response to my questions. I have always wanted a bow with the limbs mounted on the belly like the Black Widows. I have heard and read nothing but positive reviews of Georges bows and feel confident I will enjoy the bow he builds for me.  I'm looking at the green camo actionwood riser with the camo looking limbs. George and I are currently discussing the handle/grip of the bow, I have smaller hands and he is working with me to get the grip I need. Can't wait to start the process of having a bow built for me!!  I have been searching for pics of his bows and have found a few but if anyone would like to share some pics of there Rainy Day bow I would appreciate it.

If your looking for a great belly bolt bow you will be very happy with Rainyday. George is a great friend of mine and he is a real gentleman. You wont be disappointed.

Well, I sent George the email to start the bow building process. I'm getting a 50lb recurve with camo actionwood riser and the camo actionwood angle cut limbs that give it the camo look.  I went with the SR riser which is a little slimmer than his other riser.  George has been great during this process answering all of my questions about his bows and I can't wait to get mine in a few weeks.
