Ordered my 1st custom bow
« on: June 06, 2011, 01:38:00 PM »
My buddy was over yesterday for a bbq/pool party.We started talking about hunting and bows.He wanted a new longbow so I showed him a few here in the classifieds.Then I showed him some on Lost Creeks website as I talked to Chad a couple weeks ago about building one.Well I called him and he called right back we talked awhile with him and both decided to order one.We picked the woods we wanted called him back and both placed a order for the 58" life enders.I`m psyched.Can`t wait to see them.Chad was very helpful and I just can`t say enough good things about the guy!

congrates, hear alot of great things about his bows.   now you get to enjoy the wait.  my custom with idaho curt is on order and should start being built in about 2 weeks he said.  while the wait for bows is bad it just feels good knowing eventually it will be here.
