Title: Wow look what I found !!! A Buffalo Bow
Post by: coaster500 on August 21, 2010, 08:39:00 PM
I have been on the waiting list for a Big Jim Thunder Child for months and the other day I found this to hold me over   :)    (Jim has since called me and has one of two bows done) It's not a TC but an absolutely Gorgeous Buffalo Bow 60"s 45@28 smooth a silk on the draw, dead quiet and literally ZERO hand shock. I love this thing. I had some 3555 GT Trads that worked out really well at a little over 11gpp, 19.7foc with 200 grains up front....Man this thing shoots!!!

ranger 3, I think your right but it will be a tough act to beat. This Buff is really nice to shoot  :)  

One of my TC's is 46#s so it will be easy to compare it to the Buff....

Sweeeet!

What do ya mean you "found it"? Like, you were walking around out in the back yard and looked down on the ground and there it was? Or, you were at Wal-Mart and you got out of your car and there it was, leaning against a light pole?
   :confused:    :dunno:    :rolleyes:    "[dntthnk]"    ;)

Kip,

If you ever are out this way, I would like to shoot that bow!

Perhaps you should set up a direct deposit with Jim, It would be easier that way.

Great looking bow Kip!!!  I love my 60" Buff bow, hopefully I can find a big brother to it in the 60# range.

Kenneth I've already plotted in my brain for a big bro for this one but 50#s is top end for me   :)  

Jim, every time I look, hold or shoot this bow I'm in that secret spot   :)  

The only problem I'm having is this stupid grin on my face is messing up my anchor   :)  


Holy smoke I just noticed I'm over 1000 posts !!  Must be the "COMPANY"
