Luke,

    It is gone for a bit..will grow it back come Sept. Getting real sick of all the " OMG, you look like you lost 15 years!" comments...

Geno,
       she ain't fat, she's just big-boned! the pic angle looked bad, she is actually quite trim, muscular through the neck and shoulders.  ;)    :smileystooges:    :thumbsup:

Initial observations:
The 8125 padded loop string is real nice, I had to beef the serving up a bit, my bohning nocks would slide all around on it. Maybe Jim could double serve that area in the future?

The grip is a bit fuller than Harmony( my 1st bow from Jim), but it is shaped to put all of the pressure on the lifeline area of my hand; right where it should be.It is a very comfortable grip and I am adjusting nicely to it.

The finish is amazing, Jim did an article on brush finishing bows with T-bird in the latest Bowyer's journal; the proof is in the pudding.

It is well balanced and being 2" shorter than Harmony, it throws the tapered ash as hard, depite being about 4.5 pounds lighter at my draw.

All in all, this bow is heading for the top of the heap in my growing stable, I am going moose hunting in late Sept. This bow will be coming along as well as her heavier older sister.

thanks Jim for a real gem.
