I like the sap wood, but it is a green stripe Gainesville model.  Not exactly a collectors dream.

I say $300,  $400 tops

The most important part of your hunting setup is the broadhead.  The rest is just the delivery system.

It is wrong handed for me, LOL.

No not a collectors dream exactly, but considering the price of a new one, I favor the looks of the green stripes a lot more. These handles are getting more scarce as time goes by.

That really does look good. It would be a shame to scar it up by hunting with it. Well...if I can't hunt with it I don't want it anyway.

I'm glad you got it. The grip on those handles are really nice an small. It wasn't cheap, but those handles are getting harder to find.

It wasn't cheap, but it went for about what I can pick up a new riser for.  It's from the first series of risers to come out of FL... '80 or '81 I think.  I'm a sucker for non-standard looking bows and the sap wood caught my attention  :)

Now if I can just sort through all the F***** spoof fleabay emails I'm getting I'll be fine!   :mad:

It will be  :)   There'll be the B riser TD and BW SAII I traded the Supreme for, and I already have the A riser TD with #2 RER limbs that I'm trading the SAII for.  I'll sell the A riser to pay for this B riser.  That'll give me two B risers and two sets of limbs: the 50# #1 and 51# #2 from RER.  Come to think of it the #1's may go toward a second set of RER limbs.  A very complicated set of trades ands sales that were all set up very quickly when I was sleep deprived!  The one catch is if I fall in love with the BW! LOL!

How do you like the Supreme?  She's a looker isn't she?  :D   I know I'll regret not modifying it to suit me, but this riser should ease the sting a little bit!

Wow! If you trade stocks like you do bows I can see how you're affording all these toys!!     :confused:  

The Supreme...oh yeah, that chunk of firewood came yesterday.    :rolleyes:     :saywhat:  

Just hope she shoots, 'cause she ain't much to look at... IF you can stand to look at her w/o sunglasses in the daylight!!!!(THAT won't be a problem for long!   ;)   )

Wait until you see her after her "facelift"!!! I've always preferred "Natural Beauty" over all that glossy stuff anyway!

If you've already traded the Widder- DON'T SHOOT IT! You've been warned!    :knothead:  

Later, got some "surgery" to perform!
