It has been awhile since I ordered a new custom bow. Since I am now 70 and have plenty of bows to shoot it doesn't make a lot of practical sense to spend the money for a new one. I tossed the idea around for about a year and a half and finally decided to do something not practical and sprung for a new one. To be honest I had a hard time deciding which bowyer I would go with. There are so many good ones these days. Black Widow won out because I have never shot a bad one and they are so solid and their wait time isn't forever. At 70 I can't wait forever. It is a 60" SAXS with spliced limbs, 49#@28". As I said there are many other excellent bowyers and you guys know who they are. Anyway I thought I would share a few photos.

Great looking bow!
Whoa! Now that is one good looking bow. Not really a fan of the other BWs but I could see myself ordering one like that. Didn't know they offered those woods. That stick will mesmerize the deer so you shouldn't have any trouble filling your tag. Good luck.
:bigsmyl: :thumbsup: :archer:
Outstanding Widow!
Unbelievable!!
Guys, thanks for all the kind remarks. I got it all tuned up and shot it some today. Man is it nice. I still have a bit of tweaking to do and will take it to the range tomorrow for a little club 3D shoot. Since my equilibrium went south on me some time back I will probably never be able to do this bow justice as it has affected to some degree my ability to be consistent, but I am going to enjoy every minute trying. I have a hunch my other bows are going to be collecting a little dust for quite awhile.
I cannot get over those limbs, fantastic straightshot .
Very Nice. Enjoy!
Louis,that a great looking bow,glad you finally got it .cant wait to see it
