Rob Jones (Robslifts) S Africa success
« on: October 13, 2023, 06:37:57 AM »
Rob is traveling back today.  this was his second trip he want with us in 2019.  Since then dreamt of a return for a Cape Buffallo a year and a half ago the plan got set in motion he booked the hunt and had usbuild a trainer bow to get use to a heavier weight. And ordered his bow for the hunt.  Sjr Classic Longbow 62" 85@28" Built with a G10 I beam to support the BowBolt TD system.  It all worked great he made a 1 arrow kill on a good bull and on the last day there took a nice Impala ram

Congratulations Rob

There's something not everyone can accomplish.   Huge and tough animal.

It's really simple. Just don't take those borderline shots. Tomorrow is another day.

Terry The art work was done by Tracey it is something we offer to all customers. We call it bow tattooing. This was the most extensive project she has done.  I guess she will be adding a buf tattoo to this bow
