Stunning bow! Those Bull Snake skins came out great.

Finally received the bow today  :)


And to say I`m a happy camper right now would be an understatement !!

The bow is gorgeous. I really like how the Osage with the Bubinga stripes look and cant wait to see it when aged.
The snakeskins and job from Yornoc.... well what can I say??

The man is a true artist, and I`ll recommend him to everyone that needs a skinning job done   :bigsmyl:  

 

To say I was eager to open well...

 

hmmm

 


hehehe..

Yeah that is AWESOME!!

I have read quite a few comments about the Firefly TD longbows.  Those that have them seem to really like them.  I would love to handle and shoot one, but I'd probably want one after that.

One thing I noticed is that your riser looks more sleek or streamlined than the other Firefly TD LB risers I have seen.  Did you have him make it any different than the standard risers he makes?  Maybe it's just me, but from the pics I have seen of his stuff his risers look more like a recurve riser than yours does.  Can't quite put my finger on it right now.  Definitely a great looking bow and am looking forward to reading the field tests...

Thanks

real nice. I'd like to have one with osage veneers. I have talked to Jim about making one but havent pulled the trigger yet. That will be one pretty bow after a couple years of summer tanning.

Hi!
I asked Jim to make me a riser with a higher grip earlier, and was highly satisfied with that so I ordered the same grip for this riser to.
It seems that I can balance the bow better with this grip. ( same pressure point in the palm)

If you never have tried a Firefly I would recommend it!
But be aware they can make a heavy addiction (got 3 fireflys already)
