Good luck Big Jim. I appreciate your help on the phone last year when you were busy at a big Trad event. Good luck with the new addition. I think the proper name should be the Shazamm! Dip and Grip Special  :thumbsup:

Mike- no worries, I'm shure we can work things out.
Va bowbender, we are working on the site, and the bow shop, and the new show trailer and the display boards and new inventory and roofing company and now the camo dipping yadayadayada if you get my drift.
My wife and I are trying to put together all of the pics that we have saved and the new pics of bows so we can get them to Todd to build a great site. Unfortunately it will take some time.

Thanks for being patient, Bigjim

Jim, I'm just curious to how many folks work with you.  You mentioned building 200 bows last year, and now dipping?  Do you have helpers in the bow shop?  I really can't imagine that much work for one man, especially this one.   :)

You want to know how Big Jim gets it all done.
If you look in the dictionary under "hard worker" you will see Big Jim's picture.
The man starts work before most people get out of bed and is still going long after others are back in bed for the night.
He works his tail off for success.
I was a hard worker before I retired, but he is a step above my old efforts.

Hello, I just wanted to let everyone know about what kind of service you can expect from Big Jim and company.Last year at the Compton shoot i asked Jim to put a beaver tail grip on my psa x. It was pretty late in the day, he told me to pick wich tail i wanted and it would be a little after closeing time before he would have it done.So after i had my chicken dinner i stopped by his closed tent to find him sweating like only a guy named Big Jim can sweat.He explained that the tail i had chosen was not working out to well.And he would take it to his camp and work on it that night.The next morning after breakfast i stopped in to pick it up.It was beautiful he ended up trashing the tail i had picked and started over with a different one.He didnt even charge me for the second one.Im gonna send him a older model ma3 for a predator green dip and a brown beaver tail grip.Ill let him pick the tail.Shoot i dont even like long bows but im thinkin about ordering one of his.Great service is what you can expect from Big Jim and company!!!Jim Preece

"BigJim"....................

Give me a shout when you're up and running. I was planning on sending my bow in to Lonnie as soon as deer season was over here. It just ended on Sunday and I'll be waiting for you to get started up >>>------------>

Apex- Not quite 200. I did however build 150. I don't know where 200 came from but maybe from context.
My wife and I are the only archery employees I've got. My wife makes most of the leather goods and prices and stock inventory. She also helps me when I'm gluing up bows. She is great help. My bow shop is equiped with as many toys as I could find and it helps me produce bows efficently but still completely by hand.  My Roofing guys have been with me for a long time and pretty much take care of themselves. I just do the estimates and office work and a few spot checks for each job. Our kids are grown and it's just Barbara and I to wory about- Oh yeah, there's the bank to worry about too- I like to work, especially at things I enjoy. Learned it from my dad early on. He was a large animal Vetinarian in Minnesota where I grew up. Not having enough vets around, he was on the job 7 days a week and easily averaged 12+ hours a day until his late 50's when more vets started showing up. My mom made him retire when he was 62 (he wasn't happy).
Without a shadow of a doubt, the most hard working, honest and respected man I have ever known. We lost him in May of '09-----I'm missing him every day.

Ben- I will post a commencement date here and other forums when we are ready to go. Hopefully it will be soon!

Thanks to all, back to the bow shop, BigJim

Just a reminder, no more bows (or anything else) will be dipped at the alabama location. Check the website for the new Georgia shipping address.  www.camodip.net
Thanks,

Just another reminder, Big Jim will be here Sunday for camo dip training and then to take the dipping equipment back to Georgia. All bows already here will be dipped on Sunday and will ship out Tuesday.

All future orders will have to go to Big Jim's. The camo dipping website is still  www.camodip.net  and it has been updated with the new shipping and contact info.
Thanks,
Lonnie
