Ray, I shot it all day on and off today. This thing is unreal. It is absolutely perfect for me.

Really love how the Curly Koa veneer looks with the Cocobolo and Walnut riser. Still waiting to hear more about this limb layup as well. Congrats again TJ !!! Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

I really like your flat finish ya got going there. This is the second one i've seen with that look.

Are you still squirting Thunder Bird epoxy? Nice job on the bow here...

WOOD CHIPPER???? What? have you lost your marbles?

I went to T-bird myself this last summer and couldn't be happier with the stuff..... But i learned the hard way you GOTTA stir that stuff very well each time yo use it. I've got two cans of semi gloss right now about 3/4's gone that went SERIOUSLY flat on me. :eek: I had all the flattening agent settle to the bottom of the can.... oooops! I had to order some more high gloss to mix in with the remainder.

I've got two bows hanging in the spray booth right now with 6 coats on them that don't look like they have any finish at all..... live and learn eh?

I've had good luck with that light textured, non reflective finish myself. The hunters really like it...

TJ that's a masterpiece! Being a Zipper I know it shoots great. That bow has a great story behind it. I bet it will have blood on it this year.

That riser is beautiful. TJ what were you thinking selling that???Glad to see you got it back. Great bows and great friends. Your a lucky guy.

KentuckyTJ · May 06, 2014, 08:56:00 AM

Thats guys, yep its a true keeper this time. I have it tuned now baring the new A.S.string stays put. Allen and 1/4 away assure me it will.

Mike, Yeah this one has won the tree time this fall and shame on one if it gets within 15 yards.

A.S. · May 06, 2014, 11:35:00 AM

You should be ashamed Tom....now I want one!

I'm glad the string is working out for you!

ENJOY

Wow!! What a beauty! If you sell it to me, I won't tell Bill.

ARCHER2 · May 07, 2014, 10:22:00 AM

Man TJ, that's a beauty! Congrats Brother.

Haha, that's true Steve. I'd have to get you to sign a keep your mouth shut agreement though. When I get tired of it I'll call you on a secure line. We won't be able to talk more than 60 seconds though at a time just to be on the safe side.

Beautiful bow, TJ!!!

I'm glad you got it back Tom! I had this riser for a short period of time but the 61# limbs I had on it were just to much for it. This riser is one of my favorites that I've owned, Bill and Tracey are great people and will work with you to make things right!
