Chris Surtees · April 23, 2009, 12:42:00 PM

I have had is for a couple months but was waiting for the Osage to darken a little before posting pix of it.

It is all Osage, 54" and 57@26 Arroyo.

Just have to say thanks to Kevin, Sue, and of course Whip.

These are all links so just click on them to see a larger pic.

This is a very special bow as it was made from the same piece of Osage as my Dad's was. Maybe he will be along shortly to post some pix of his Osage/Waterfall Bubinga 54" Arroyo.

Stunning Chris!!

Very cool Chris, and thanks for the promo!

I have to agree with snakewood - that is quite the backstop you have there!

Stay safe, hope you can bring that bow home soon!

Great pics of a really nice bow. And thank you for your service to our country.

Chris Surtees · April 23, 2009, 03:50:00 PM

Marco,

It is supposed to break a hundred in a few days but at least it is a dry heat

Whip,

99 days and counting...it will go fast. Believe it or not sandbags are not all that hard on arrows

....99 days and counting...it will go fast. Believe it or not sandbags are not all that hard on arrows ......

Are going back then, Chris??

Sand bags are hardest on those who fill them.. :D

Thank you just never seems to be enough...
Semper Fi!! and HooAH !!

Beautiful bow and shooting...now where's your dad's??

Chris Surtees · April 23, 2009, 04:07:00 PM

Ranger 3, those are sand bags around an indirect fire (Scud) bunker. Just so happens they are under a sunshade and make about the best backstop I have found.

Chris Surtees · April 23, 2009, 04:16:00 PM

Billy,

I will be done and coming home to drop my retirement paperwork. Hopefully the Army lets me out.

Never was fond of filling bags but these were done before I arrived so I just adapted to my environment.

I will send my dad and email about posting pix of his bow tonight.
