Just sent my deposit for one of John's 21st clones. I asked for 65#@27 and 62". Gave him pretty free reign to make me a hunting tool, asked that he use what from his experience has performed best. I did suggest to him that I liked the Zircote that is in the riser of my recurve circa 1998. Bamboo cores and possibly curly maple laminations. I'll have to talk with him about horn tips as well.
Just One More.

It sounds like you will have a great Bow. Johns Bows are incredible. I hope you share pics after you receive it, which sometimes is as quickly as 2 weeks.

John called and we talked about my bow, I sent a outline of my hand to help with getting the grip size closer. We talked about horn tips, a leather grip and putting a heavy wood (Zircote) in the riser. He said it might take awhile, but I'll be ready. More time to scrape acorns together.

Talked with John again and the laminations will be bird's eye maple, should be real pretty.
