Thanks
Talk about wound up!
I'm like a kid at Christmas. I'm driving my wife crazy showing her the pictures. Have checked the USPS tracking site about 20 times even though I know it's just shipping today.

Have checked google maps. Lets see Kirks place to mine about a 13 hour drive.......
Should be here Wed maybe?

Hope I can get some sleep

Bring it on bro.  I like what I've seen so far.  That high gloss is the only way to go if you want to show off pretty wood.

Beautiful bow!

Having Kirk build you a bow in an interactive proposition at best. He will send you lots of pictures before he starts just for ideas.

The process changes as he gets the artistic juices flowing.

There is no putting in an order and he calls when it's done . I guarantee you'll get a call something like this

Ya no Bro I was thinking if we add a little of ect.

The man is a true artesian  always pushing for perfection. Not only in looks but in proformance

I think when you get it in your hands you are going to find that it's beauty takes a back seat to it's performance, least that's what happened to me.  

[petalumapete]

That's what I'm hopping for.

I don't know about you guys but the process of a bow coming to life is interesting as hell.
I never realized the amount of work and design that goes into these things

[petalumapete]

This is the birth of my riser.

Kind of like a Phoenix . Born of slime and pressure

I see one of these in my near future.That riser is amazing!

[katman]

That is a really good looking bow. Congrats. Can not wait for your impressions after getting to play with her.

Here's a pick of the riser hardware going in
