Im thinking of getting the "little sister", a s funds will allow.

Blake, that 100# PLX wouldnt have been at Big Jim's booth would it? If so, I've pulled, and shot the same bow for a bit. Only a measly 93# at my draw though.

Yep that was actually Big Jim's booth but Jim was out shooting and his buddy was running the register or something, didn't meet Jim until later.  But his buddy just about dropped a golden egg when he saw me pick it up pull it back and set it back down with not much more than a shrug.

Isn't little sister a lefty? Or was the shelf not cut yet when he measured it? Or do you shoot both?

The twin so to say was cut with the shelf on the right side (incorrect at the time)...best wrong cut he ever made if it sells  :rolleyes:  .

The "little sister" wasn't cut either way at first since it didn't make weight but as JD started "training" with it he cut the shelf right handed so he could eventually shoot it.  

I talked to JD again this morning and he was surprised at the interest in the bows...I guess he's gotten several offers just waiting for someone to send the money to hold them or buy them.

So I guess if you've expressed interest you should make your mind up quickly from what I hear.

That picture excels the pixel limit, but I can't edit my post now, due to the auctions. A moderator may delete it.

Yea if lenda try to pull my bow she will leave a turd in the floor. I got the bow it pulls very smooth and a fast shooting bow. JD did a great job. Yes blue and green is my color. Marlon

Blake,

Its a righty. Same deal here, the fella workin there was amazed and talked about me all day. lol. I picked up and drew the 79# and another in that area, and he handed me the 90#, which I did the same with.

Sounds like someone may get little sister before I do. If so, oh well. I tried.

Knowing that some MEN won't get as big as her, is enough to make you cry.

Nice heavy bow, good color combo!
I have built a 115# @30# R/D bow for a guy in Rumania. He posted a video on You-Tube pulling the bow for 22 seconds.
