Night Wing, that rack of JL's looks exactly like one of the finish-it-yourself-and-screw-it-together racks that I bought on bBay. Haven't seen them lately, but another seller is offering a similar product.

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Beautiful bows! All the best with them!
Someday you and I will take the Great Hart by our own skill alone, and with an arrow. And then the Little Gods of the Woods will chuckle and rub their hands and say, "Look, Brothers. An Archer! The Old Times are not altogether gone!"

That Thermal is one sweet bow and a freak of nature when it comes to the speed/quiet department. That bow will flat out smoke an arrow and very quietly, I'll add. Greg is a good guy and if it goes anywhere, it'll be back on my rack. But, it has been sitting for some time (Greg had to wipe the dust off her!) as I have been shooting my vintage Kodiaks a bunch lately and within a couple weeks landed two very sweet Blacktail TD's. I commit myself to one woman, but bows on the other hand....I'm a bit weak in that department. It's all good...

See you in Balt-more,hun.

Believe me, I about poo'd my pants when he said he would trade the Thermal and the Model 29 for my Snakebit. I just couldn't shoot it. Way to big for me. I'm only 65" tall and that Snakebit was 64". I just couldn't get any kind of performance out of her. It hurt to get rid of such a pretty bow but I figure what is the point of keeping a bow if I can't shoot it at all. Just doesn't make sense to me, it just degrades the spirit of the bow in my eyes. Besides, I've always loved that Thermal and no matter what, when I pick it up... I can just flat out shoot it. It is so comfortable in my hands and such an extension of my arm that I feel like I ripped JL off!

There is no better person to deal with in the world than JL. Thank God I found such a great guy to shoot with all the time!

His women is hilarious though. Everytime he gets a new toy, she just rolls her eyes and laughs at him. I must have called him a kid in a candy store ten times that day! He kept sneakin out of the house to shoot it. Even when the steaks were on the grill!!! We all got a laugh out of it.

Greg
We should have shotguns for this kind of deal.

Killdeer,

I found these one, two, three and four bow racks on this website. I'm looking at this particular one with the storage box underneath it in a walnut stain. Once on the page, just scroll on down until you see it. On that page, two of them are shown in red mahogany and cherry, but I like walnut. My 66" Blacktail Elite recurve TD, 64" Bob Lee Signature recurve TD and my one piece 68" Belcher/Massie Longhorn hybrid longbow will look good on this bow rack....and so will my 31" long, Easton XX78 Super Slam arrows hung there too.
