Sorry... I just cannot get photobucket to cooperate with me.

The bow is a Kempf Kwyk stick. Cocobolo riser with a bacote flair and bacote veneers (back and belly). Moose antler tips and thumb rest.

I got the "guru" grip. Specs are 56" and 50#@28".

I am totally impressed with Jack's craftsmanship. I ordered the bow in late April and it arrived today.

I could put my fingers around My first three arrow group at 25 yards.

TJ: I bought one off of the classifieds and fell in love with it. I was told Jack's waiting list was 2 years... but he got it to me in 3 months.

My other one is 53#@28 and I've noticed my shoulders bothering me some... I think this one will be perfect for me.

mine are just gray dymondwood which I like cause I am pretty rough on my bows.  I had a real pretty one that was osage and cocobola with bocote limbs, but I could take it to the woods! =)
