My New Mini 14 (Pics)

[Spurs]

I am excited to post this.  I asked Bob to build me something different or unique.  He did not dissappoint.  This is the easiest bow that I have ever tuned.  It shoots better than it looks.  John Dill built me a beautiful in velvet series quiver to go on it.  It has carbon foam longbow limbs with Copperhead skins.  It is smoking fast.  It averages 178 with 6 strand string (Pierre Lucas SBD).  These strings are awesome.

Specs:  Morrison mini 14 ILF burl cocabola, curly maple stripe with fingergrooves.
Carbon foam Longbow D limbs makes a 58" bow.
46lbs @28" with Copperhead Skins
6 strand SBD string
Kanati in velvet sereies pro series quiver
500 spine traditionl only 29 3/4 with 9 inch wraps, 5 inch shield cut and 200gr head.

Enjoy!!

Dang. Just when I thought I was over the temptation to buy another ILF. Temptation strikes again. Nice looking bow.

Thanks for the kind words.  I really am enjoying the bow.  My main problem is that I already want another one.  It is an addiction.   I love the finger grooves.  I sent my Shawnee back yesterday to have fingergrooves put in.  I really like the pinecones as well, but just hate to spend the money.  I do see pinecones coming as mods in the future.  I shot one with a pinecone and loved it.  The only problem is if I can't have them on all my bows then I would rather not have the temptation.

Vermonster, I agree the pics came out way to large.  I thought photobucket had them sized down.  I will be glad to resize.  Maybe you can help me or tell me what to do.

How about a photo of it drawn? I'd like to see the length relative to a person or some other object, please. Really beautiful work!

NCH, I will try to take a pic tommorrow with the bow drawn.  It is a 58" bow so not super short, but not long either.  It is very smooth drawing and shooting though.  

Lanier, you can only imagine the temptation that I had to come to the shoot this weekend.  I got it together right before the Howard Hill but my little angel caught a cold so I stayed at the house.

cacciatore, I have been drooling over your bows since december.  I especially like the Shawnee coca and gaboon with diamondbacks.  Sweet rig.

Thanks again for letting me share guys.  I love to see pics,and you all have been kind enough to lend me yours so I thought I would try and contribute.
