2025 Bow Swap Progress Thread - CLOSED

Jon Lipovac · May 02, 2025, 12:42:14 PM

Just got home and low and behold.

For you USPS haters, timing on this was perfect.
Just so happens to be my Bday.😁

Great job Travis. Very nice fit and finish. Fits my hand well and I really like the throat and the shelf, I'm gonna try and replicate that part on my next grip.

Full draw pics will have to wait a couple weeks as I just had surgery on some tendons in my draw hand.

Well Done!!!!

Well, I went out to my parcel box hoping it was me and sure enough there was a box in there. I got all excited then I realized no it was just some smooth on that I ordered. Bummer. I was really hoping it was me. This is bow swap thing is horrible on the nerves😭

Thanks guys. I'm glad it made the trip without damage, it's always stressful shipping things. Hope your hand heals quickly Jon.

Hopefully it starts heading my way soon.

I think she needs to make a trip to the Appalacians before the final destination, I don't see any eastern trips yet.

I hope they didn't loose that thing Kenny! I have a part that tracking keeps saying it's gonna be here the next day and I still haven't seen it. It's been 4 days of this.

kennym · May 03, 2025, 11:15:35 AM

I know stuff happens but this is starting to get on my one nerve that's left .

Worst part is I insured it but with no proof of cost that is most likely worthless.

USPS is tarnishing what should be fun full draw pics full of jealousy and enthusiasm for craftsmanship. Happy to have walked away from a career there, saw that ship sinking.

Roy from Pa · May 03, 2025, 12:46:49 PM

I hate that shit too...

I sent a package to mad max and it got lost in space.

I went to post office and spoke with a supervisor, he found it in a warehouse in Pittsburgh.

Sorry, wish I had better updates!

If you know where your local distribution warehouse is the managers in those larger buildings can usually reach out to other similarly sized buildings which then branch out to their local offices. Starting with the warehouse where is went wrong would be the best option.

Victims, keep an eye on your porches.
