After some tantalizing glimpses and tales of its prowess, I received my new Sasquatch TD from Kirk today.

 

 

After spending a while just staring at it, because it looks so damn pretty, I put it together, strung it up and went out back to see what it was like to shoot.

Quoting the legendary Colonel Sherman Potter of MASH fame, "There aren't enough "o's" in smooth to describe the way this bow shoots.

It's 45#@28", which means it comes in about 47# at my draw, but it comes back so smoothly that it feels lighter than it is. The limbs are "XX Carbon."  Any thought it's light is quickly dispelled however when it send a arrow down range - it shoots flat and fast.  There's no hand shock and it barely needs string silencers.  I shot it without them and if I hadn't seen deer jump things I would have sworn they couldn't hear wouldn't bother, but I have so I will.

I offered it a variety of ammunition - starting with some 2016's with 145gr up front, a couple of CT Whitetail 35/55's with 175gr, some CX Predators 25/40 with 175 and some Beman ICS 500's with 175gr.  It was willing to work with the 2019's and the 35/55's, found the 25/40's beneath contempt - and seemed to really like the ICS 500's.  It was nailing where I was looking with them.  

Just for the hell of it I started shooting at my "form" target - it's out about 30 yards.  That's beyond any hunting shot I'd be comfortable with but shows you pretty quickly - and might I add ruthlessly - when your form's off.  When I did right by the bow it was nailing spots with the Bemans.  

I'm taking this bow to MD this weekend for Sika and to Texas in a couple of weeks for hogs, so with any luck at all, you'll be hearing more about it soon.

Conclusion = this is one smooth drawing, sweet shooting bow.  It shoots fast, flat and accurately.  And it looks pretty damn good while it's at it.

"PRETTY" is an understatement!

I'd make an appointment with Olan Mills & have family photos taken with that fine specimen without a doubt!

Wow! That's a dandy! Congrats!

For more positive reviews on Kirk's great bows, check out my thread "Sasquatch in Georgia". you will never go wrong with a Bigfoot Bow. Congrats on your beautiful bow.  Bill

I'm glad you like her Paul. The foam cores with the XX carbon Matrix has a lot to do with that smooth draw. When i fist starting using the foam cores i could have swore i missed the poundage by 5 pounds drawing the bows for the first time.


Thanks for the compliments guys. It makes it all worth while.      


Here are a couple more photos with a strung profile and a varmint hunting attachment.

[joe skipp]

Kirk builds a fine bow, she's a beaut.

[Rob DiStefano]

absolute beauty of a bow.  

[**DONOTDELETE**]

You know something Rob.... Your name just hit the top of my order sheets. I'll probably get started in the next week or so on it. i build 3 at a time and yours is in the next batch.  

The holidays got me a couple weeks behind schedule here....      Kirk

[Zradix]

Rob...get any good news lately?...lol
 

[beyondmyken]

Paul, what is the wood in the riser?  I have been emailing Kirk about a bow with similar specs.   I have been thinking hard about a Bigfoot bow this kind of thread makes me want to pull the trigger, er I mean, release the  string.

[katman]

I am envious of you Rob, my spot won't come up for a couple months.

What wood is the riser?

[Gary Greene]

Any one thinking of a Big Foot,get one.You will love it! I have a Yeti and it is a great little bow.I have had the bow for a while and still love it.

[Sixby]

Several years ago I saw my first Sasquatch. I said to my self. Self , If a bow could shoot itself without anyone pulling the string that thing will do it. I never wanted another bowyers bow until I saw that one. When I got mine I found out this baby has teeth. Some talk a good talk but this is one bow that walks the walk. You just will not find a better shooting bow. As good,. Well I kind of am partial to a certain local brand. but better. I sure wouldn't want to bet my life on that.

God bless you all, Steve

[BrownA5]

Nice looking bow you got there!!

[billy shipp]

Paul,

How long is your bow?

You'll be in Tejas in 2 more weeks for the annual Big Foot Bowhunting Hog Stomp, and I'm anxious to compare Kirk's longbow to his recurve.

Beautiful bow there Bud, but I'm thinking I know where one is that's just a lil bit purdier (GRIN)

Get that baby dialed in before heading down here. I don't want to be hearing no excuses.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

Hey Billy,

I think Paul is still up chasing Sika deer around in MD.


This one is a 60" bow.
