Slowly? What's the matter with you? Afraid of commitment?

something like that, but mostly more afraid by my banker ...

Here is Ryan's thread he is the proud owner of the above Big Jim's Thunder Child     This little gem is only 52 inches long. It was a special order for Ryan's 25 inch draw......I have one ordered that is 56 inches long .....

Coaster- I've been looking at that picture and can't believe that I'm still  holding that bow back at full draw.LOL

just a fyi-- I am going to be picking up a fairly large supply of Black and white ebony on Friday(same woods in the bow pictured above).
Large supply is relative. Unfortunately none of it is dalmation.

thanks, bigjim

Jim, just looking at you holding 86#s at full draw sent a searing bolt of pain from shoulder to brain    

In my youth I pulled an 80 plus pound wheel bow just enough time to know I wanted to sell it  

[BigJim]

Just for the record (like it matters) but that was a 90lb. We had left my target bow (86lb) behind. Can't really tell the differece except that I think the 90lb makes my belly stick out farther when I shoot. LoL
I have so little time to shoot anymore that it takes a little stretching to get warmed up. I have moved a bag and a spare bow to my bow shop. Maybe I can take 15 minute breaks like when I had a real job. I could hone up on my shooting.

Never gets old looking at all these good looking bows! I need to just get on the list.  

[coaster500]

Jim with all the irons you have in the fire, I think it's amazing that you shoot at all  

[coaster500]

Two more builds and I am up.....man the wait is killing me:)

[featherhorn]

You want be dissapointed, I promise

[Kenneth]

I just can't put my Buff bow down!  I just got 2 extra strings for it a few days ago and I already have one broken in and tuned, and will start on the other one tomorrow.

Mines in the batch being built now. Been running to the Post office everyday I get a chance, with fingers crossed. I just Love the Slideshow! I'm planning on going to Denton Hill in July, and I'll be able to meet Big Jim in person, (and see what goodies he brings along!). I want a 2pc Thunder Child next, so maybe he'll have one I like, if not I'll get to go over what I want with him in person. Life is good when a man can have that Xmas anticipation feeling at 51 years old, in May no less!! I Love it!

[coaster500]

I'm with you Danny  

Make sure you shout out when you get yours because that's one more build closer to mine ....

[coaster500]

Kip,I don't know who is resonsible for Jim's slideshow but it is a Masterpiece.When I talked with Jim he's sure pushing a lot of credit your way ,so well done my friend.Jim's sure proud of it!

[coaster500]

Thanks Steve, it all happened because I was trying to choose my own woods. With subject matter like Jim's Bows it was fun. Once I had all the pictures the slideshow was a no brainer.  I'm glad Jim likes it and maybe it helped a few others like me in the order process and the build wait?
