Beautiful bow buejeger, AND professional looking photos (are you a pro.?) If not, you could be one!
Hmmmmm. I know you think you understand what you thought I said, but I'm
not sure that what you heard is what I actually meant!

Thanks guys   :)  
As for the pics, yes I am a pro photographer... These were just very quickly done, too busy at the moment but the subtle tones of the woods really deserve a more complex lighting scheme to show them off...
Just spent some time down he club getting to know the bow a little better...  Great shooter!  A real fun bow to shoot   :D

Great looking bow. But I've wondered with that short riser if a bow quiver would be functional?

I have seen Thunderchildren with bow quivers, but personally I like this kind of bow without...

Very nice looking bow! I have one due any day now and I hope it looks as nice as yours.

Great pictures by the way. I have a lot of respect for professional  photographers they are the unsung heros of the art world IMO. Glen

Hei Svein! Probably not, May is real busy at the studio and every year it clashes with confirmations.... Business first I am afraid...

Thanks, I am sure you will love yours!
And thanks  :)  I am always saying I am a frustrated artist... My mind sees what I want to produce but my hand won't move the pencil or brush to make it... But with a camera, well that is my paintbrush... Talking of artists... Big Jim is one for sure!

What a fine looking bow.  The tips on Big Jim bows are just fantastic.
