Being as there are thousands of people waiting on a Big Jim bow, and you have 4, I see a clear need for some 'Redistribution'.    :knothead:    :biglaugh:

LOL,They say patience is a virtue.Obviously that fella was never waiting for a Big Jim.The worst time is when jim sends your pictures of the completed bow and it will be in the mail tommorrow.In Canada I think the customs guys purposly hold back my stuff !LOL

You are all right, Jim bows are an obsession but as far as being patient, NOT !! I just love the way Jim uncovers the treasures that God built into the woods. I get to enjoy both their function and beauty.

The slideshow was just therapy ….

Just got a soft spot for these bows?

Centaur, if you don't get your bow soon I'll ship you one of mine to play with until yours is done... hang in there my friend the wait is well worth it  :)

Steve I've mailed and received mail from Canada and I don't envy your having to deal with how slow it can go at times  :(

Kip,Your so right,buying a Big Jim isn't just a purchase,Its an experience.Its a complete process,decisions on models,Wood choices,Talking with the little Fella,Waiting and then .....It finally arrives,You've been dreaming it ,hunting it,your mouth is dry and your fingers don't work to get the box open,and..........there she be! The most Purdy you've ever seen!I just sat on my rear and stared,for quite a while,like when I shoot a big deer and admire the Masterpiece.AAAh yes it IS an experience.

Steve, I hear most of those Canadian Customs guys are Bowhunters and know what those long boxes are about. I wouldn't want to sling accusations around, but if the new string that comes with a bow is already shot-in, well, Just Sayin'.   :bigsmyl:
