I like your PCH! That's the first close-up without red glass I've seen. I have a PCHX and a PAX that I think highly of as well.

Beautiful Bow. Can you attempt to describe what the "Asbell Grip" feels like? I have never handled a Asbell grip. Thanks

Nice looking bow. I like the way you did yours without the red. The Asbell grip is my favorite grip mine feels natural and like my hand melts in the bow.

That is a sweet looking widow.
My KBX is the quietest bow I have ever owned.
And I like the red too!

Thanks guys!

Tom - you're right...I prefer the "all natural" red on my bows.

Duncan - the Asbell grip for me just fills out the contact area of my hand more. I've never considered myself a high-wrist shooter, but the standard grip always created more of a pressure point in the web of my hand. The Asbell grip provides just the right amount of comfort and also does add IMO a great degree of pointability.

Shaun - I've only shot it a little so far at close range but I was getting apparently good arrow flight from Axis 500's, 30" w/125 gr point, and my usual Beman MFX 500's, 28.25" w/200 gr points. I haven't checked but these arrows are probably pretty close in spine, although I have owned other bows that wouldn't shoot both and were a lot more touchy.

Didn't get to finish last post regarding arrow spine...

I really haven't had the opportunity do much tuning yet either...just installed the spider silencers, set a nock at 5/8", set BH at 8.5" and started shooting and was really surprised how well it performed with no adjustments!

Very nice, there seems to be following for Widows without red glass. Good choice. It is nice to know that the people at Black Widow aim to please.

I haven't tried one, but like the PCHX and PLX with the veneers offered. Also like the idea of test driving a bow before buying.

Great looker. I like the second picture best. What are the limb veneers?
