This is cool stuff. Can tell already that's going to be a good looking bow. Good story also.

Very nice Chuck..

Can't wait to see the finished bow.
You do really nice work.

Gotta see this bow, good story! Love the old stuff myself.

Very cool story.  A family heirloom has been born.

Great story! Can't wait to see the pics.

IT'S HERE, IT'S HERE!!!!!!  My new Echo, Dad's Bow, is here!!  What a gorgeous bow!!  Chuck, it is perfection, exactly what I had envisioned!!  Thank you so very much for what will be an heirloom in my family.  Sorry for hijacking your thread.

Chuck did an unbelievable job on this bow.  It is very simple, understated, and elegant.  It is absolutely stunning.  I have been practicing with and planning to hunt with my Two Tracks Longwalker.  Not anymore.  Out of the tube, I shot my Echo like I'd been shooting it for years.  Even without the supplied Two Tracks string silencers, it is the ultimate in quiet, and light as a feather.  I've only got to shoot it maybe a dozen times (I'm doing housework while the boss lady cleans the barn, company coming today), all wandering through the yard with a judo point.  I'm good out to 25 yards.  

66" 56@28, black walnut limbs under brown glass, birdseye maple riser with brown leather grip.  I have fairly big hands but love a small grip.  Chuck nailed it, the grip just melts in my hand.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Seriously impressed.

Love that Bird's Eye! Your Dad had some fine taste in wood. You share that good taste in bows.

Very Nice. Good on both of you.

Man o man.  That looks fantastic.  To know the history of the woods used makes it even more beautiful to look at.
I'm very happy for you.

That is about as special as it gets for a bow!  Great job on both of you!

That is indeed a very good looking bow! I'm sure it will be a treasure for you.

Chuck, good job!

Phil, I hope you put that special bow to good use and have someone in mind for when you are done that will appreciate it!

Very special.

Chuck does beautiful work !!!

Congrats on a wonderful bow.

That is a SWEET looking bow...WOW!!!

Nice Bow, Great story! I'm sure there are many more memories in store from that Bow!

Phil, I just got in from some deer hunting at a friends camp in Northern MI. No deer taken but plenty were seen along with Bear, Coyote, Turkey, Porkie's and plenty more. Great time spent with great friends.
I am so happy you are pleased with the bow. This has been one of my favorite builds to date and to know the bow fits and is appreciated is just icing.
Give a call this week sometime and lets chat. Enjoy your bow.
