From all the posts I've read on the Thunderchild, and they are not few, it is safe to say my next custom will be a Big Jim Thunderchild!

Svein,Pictures in all honesty don't do these bows justice.You do have to see to believe and appreciate.

So I've heard! But to be honest I hope the bows aren't any finer than the pics make'em look, cause then I'd be marrying a stick next!

What would my parents think^^

Anyone know what length Thunderchild would handle a 30" draw???

BigJim

I would suggest a 58" bow for that.

Thanks Jim, will there be any stacking at 30" with a 58" bow?

BigJim

No! I actually shoot a 56" bow and draw to nearly 31". I feel no ill affects. I don't think you would have an issue with a 56" er either, but I know a 58 will be comfy for longer draws.

I just picked up a used Buffalo bow and I would definately go with the Beaver Tail handle if you were to order.  It provides the "traction" of checkering with the suppleness of leather.  Real cool looking too!

The beavers are getting hit real hard this year and for good reason. Just as Dimeit explains. They offer superior grip and feel.
