gregg coffey javamen! help!
« on: August 15, 2017, 11:56:00 PM »
I just put a deposit down on an elkheart. Gregg let me borrow one and i fell in love at first grip. Then I shot it. I think I wept. Short story long, i chose bocote riser and myrtle burl veneer with horn inlays on the limb tips.But...i have a lot of time to change my mind. so lets see them beauties for inspiration. I have 9 months to ammend the order.

Don't change a thing.  It will be a beauty.

The time goes fast. Mine should be done this week. Assyrian 60lb@30". I couldn't decide on woods either, except to use Diamondwood of some color for the riser. So I left it up to Greg to pick.
I'll post some photos when it gets here.

Recurve Addict,
Addiction to new bows is a serious disease.  I suspect many, maybe most, of the TradGang members have suffered from its many ill effects.

So I think it's time for an intervention.  I suspect many others would volunteer to help, but I'd like to be the first to offer meaningful help.

Just change the order to LH, 45-48# @28" and have Greg ship it to me when it's done.  No sense letting the new bow smell get into your house and wreak havoc with your recovery.
