During the time I was ordering my 3 piece Buffalo,Jim and I had some great conversations.He mentioned to me a new bow he was thinking of.A shorter version of his Buffalo.He said I don't really know what to name her.I paused for a second and told him what about a Scout,you know the Buffalo scout.He laughed and said why the heck didn't I think of that! I guess Jim did use it!LOL
Quote from Howard Hill.( Whenever he taught someone to shoot) "Son make up your mind right now if you want to target shoot or hunt as theres a world of differance between the two"

Is this the one that was just on the big auction site? I was going to bid on it,but it's a hair too light at my draw. If it is the one,it's a great looking little bow!

BigJim

Well guys, I guess the cat is out of the bag and I wasn't even done skinnin that cat!

That bow in mention was the 1st of it's kind of in 2011. I have built several in the past and was kind of surprised how well they were received. Certainly nothing wrong with it, but I have no way of truly determining how well a 54" bow shoots except by feed back.

It is a scaled down version of my buffalo and is only available in a 54". It is (from what I'm finding out) a very good shooter for those guys with draw lengths shorter than 28"s and I would expect up to 28".
The Scout has a very short riser to give it an ample amount of working limbs. It won't be available in 2 piece because the riser is very small.

Thanks, BigJim ....and yep, Steve gets credit for the name.

The fellow I got this from was shooting at a 30" draw and was smoking the arrow. At m my 27" draw she super smooth and plenty fast hits where you look with ease. I shot this with 600 epics but my old carbon flash arrows they are 14-570 spine they will stack them right on top of each other Great job Big Jim! Love this bow great bow for shooting the arial targets hands down. I have never had a Thunderchild always wanted one but this bow is a sweetheart very happy  to own this beauty THANKS BIG JIM THIS BOW WILL BE ANOTHER HOME RUN !!

With the short riser, is there a hanshock issue?

bownutts

No hand shock even with my light arrows she dose shoot the 5575 at weight 486gr very well also
