If you have to have a Griffin and dont want to wait, buy Used. If you cannot accept buying used and dont want to wait, go cry to someone else.
I agree with Izzy, If you know this is the bow for you..... wait.
If you are not a patient person who's problem is that? :confused: Certainly not The Bowyers. It sounds to me like he is in a good place! You dont get there by cheating people and building a crappy product. To me the wait would be worth its weight in gold.
I sure would like to see the 59'er of yours Ken, hope we can meet one of these days. I encourage you to come to the stump shoot that is held at Rockwood forest. If you miss it, there are plenty of other events, hopefully we will cross paths.
