owlbait,
Yes indeed it does have the Juniper.  That ebony sure is slick looking.  

jonsimoneau,
It's tough.  I think i just got lucky that a job that required my skill set (money handling), that offered full time employment with benefits.

I finally did it.  The check will be in the mail tomorow morning. Here is what i went with:

48#@28", 68" long, cocbolo for the riser, and after a lot of thought i decided that for now the takedown isn't practical for what i plan on doing.

Jobs are hard to come by everywhere, congrats to you man! I'm happy the Good Lord smiled on you.

I'm still waiting for my call, maybe soon?
Where I live in SE Missouri is a stagnent job area also, but you just have to wait it out. Sooner or later hopefully something will happen.

Thanks for the well wishes everyone!

I think I'm going to have the bow done in 66" and no take down.  If it really can't fit in my car i have a roofrack, and a pvc tube is cheaper than a take down option.  Also by lower the cost of the bow i can order sooner   :)  
Good plan Sean!
Congrats on the new job...that is a great relief, I'm sure!
Enjoy your new Cheetah when it comes!

I wouldnt spend any of your hard earned money on a bow. Save it for something frivolous of which a bow is not and borrow one from dads collection. He probably wont notice.   :bigsmyl:

6'2" & prefer longer Hills 68" & above. Heavier draws also. Consider it. Hard to make a mistake. Good job news too.

He pretty much shot a lot of different bows at Compton's last year plus the ones in my collection, but he's had his heart set on a HH Cheetah for some time now.

Besides, someday, if and when he gets hitched he'll find out how hard it is to sneak 'em in the house  :eek:

Well less than 3 weeks after he ordered it the Mail Lady dropped this off today.
 

 

Now I gotta wait till he gets here from work for the unveiling.  I already texted him these pics.

Sean, I am SOOO happy for you, a man needs to work... he also needs to get a bow guilt free. You now deserve it and I think someday you will have both takedown and one piece. Why not!
