Well I am on the list for a Big Jim’s Bow!
« on: March 02, 2013, 02:34:00 PM »
The question is a Buffalo or a Thunder Child?
I shot both at the TBOF today.  They are both great shooting bows.  :confused:

I have both, love them equally. I would let your hunting program make the choice
Tree stand or blind: TC, stalking: Buff!

But you can stalk with a TC and hunt tree stands with a buff    :bigsmyl:

I've yet to try the Buffalo, but am more than impressed with my Thunderchild.  I bought it specifically as a blind bow....

Never question a man's choice in bows or the quality of an animal he kills.  He is the only one who has to be satisfied with either of those choices.

I'm shooting a Thunderchild, and am on the list for another. Either one will be the right choice. God bless.

Love my ThunderChild.  Great bow for blind and stand.

The Big Guy is aces to work with and makes a beautiful bow!

You can't go wrong either way!

Thanks for all of the responses, I am still torn on which model of bow, it will be a takedown 50# at 28".  I have already decided on the wood, it will be Wenge and Bacote riser, Bacote veneers, Elk Antler Overlays, Black Beaver Tail Grip.  I have a few months to decide on the model, I am leaning toward the 62” Buffalo.  :dunno:
