Aonyone know how to see their bows(Big River)?  Do they have a website?  Thanks in advance!

702plmo

No web site.   We can start posting pics of ours on this thread and you can get an idea from there.

Mine is a hunting stick.60 inch 57lbs @ 28 inch.
The veneers is what he called fiddle back maple and was stained with a stain he can no longer get.

I have a bow similar to 702plmo except the riser is Zircote(dark chocolate/ebony color) and the limbs are bamboo, which has turned a nice yellow/gold over the years.  Don't know how to post pice.  John does make a great bow.  Mine is 67# @28".

Thanks everyone.  I would like to see that Kodiak copy!

John makes a good bow.  I have several sitting around my basement.  He makes a bunch of styles and configurations.  My favorite is his 66" R/D longbow.  They are great hunting bows.  Just received a new one and it is beautiful.  Need to grow into it a bit though.  A great friend has several more including a Super Kodiak wanna-be and three piece longbow.

If you are wanting one...might be a good idea to act soon.
