I can't wait to compare a Buff and a TC!
She will be a sweet bow for the blind or the stand

Chameleon is home!

Wow, triple wow!
I am used to the Gentle Giant quality of work, attention to details and his ability to listen to your requirements and produce the bow you are dreaming of!

This is my third BJ bow, and I am speechless.
- The hunter finish is totally non reflective, but looks rich and deep
- in hand, totally balanced, confortable, perfect fit to my hand
- To draw, different of my Buffalos: Lots of early pre-load, and smooth as butter!!! I draw in my house and stayed at full draw dreaming of turkeys from the blind, pigs from the treestand and deer from the ground...

No pics yet, but I will go this weekend on my lease and will take pictures of chameleon in his natural element!

Big Jim treats you like a friend, and builds one bow at a time: It might be long, but it is worth every minute of wait time.

Thank you James!

Thanks all for the kind words!
Guy, may be one day we will stumpshoot together

Ken, I look forward shooting with you again. You'll shoot her as much as you want. Denton for sure!

Tom, I was expecting the best from Jim for sure. But the new hunter finish he is using now is out of this world. Amazing to look at, and a great feel to it too!

What I liked also is the fact that this TC is so physically light in the hand, she reminds me of my  first bow, a D bow.

Needless to say, it will be long to wait for Saturday to go shooting!
