Need Help, Who to have take poundage off a bow Griffin
« on: March 03, 2011, 10:15:00 PM »
I have called john who makes the griffin ,Because I'm on his list for another one ,But I can't get him to return my call, I gave him my e-mail but I don't know if he has a computer.  Or maybe he just doesn't do that once he makes the bow.

I purchased it offer the classifieds it is 42# @ 28" I would like to make it a 38#

I would like to have someone take poundage off of it ,I'm only looking at taking about 3# to 4# off.

If nothing else I can live with it being a 42#.
I want to do this because of shoulder problems.

Who would be the best to have do this.  Not worried about cost just somebody that does quality work.

Thanks ahead of time

Joe Lasch at Prairie Traditions just did a weight reduction on a bow for me.  He goes by Whip on here I believe.  Also a sponsor here.

Chuck is familiar with the Griffin bows. He would be a great choice, and Joe does excellent work also.

I've done some Griffins before - they are great bows!  3-4# off your bow shouldn't be a problem.  Give me a call if you'd like to talk about it.

Oh heck just take a file out and give it go yourself.  Just kidding. I have a Griffin and love the bow. Send it to Whip and he'll make it work for you.

I would be happy to "take the bow off your hands", Carl, this would make it a little lighter.

Just kidding bud.
