Congrats on the new bow Mike! It's beautiful!! Maybe we can get together again and shoot some. I enjoyed hanging out and swapping stories with ya. I have to say that bow will be an awesome ground blind bow. It'll be hard not staring at it though.lol

To say Jim out did himself......No!
That's Jim's MO. He out does himself on every bow he makes.
I have a buffalo of his making that I am I Awwww of every time I take it out. I can't wait to order another bow from him maybe I'll try a TC. But I love my buffalo so much I have no desire to buy another bow.
Nice bow!!  Enjoy    ;)

Again, a beauty. I'm especially glad to see the grip he worked up for you. That's exactly the shape that works for me - didn't know he'd build 'em that way.

Top of my list for  my next (overdue) bow for sure.

Looks great!

I'm having a bow built with a leadwood riser as well.
Hopeful my leadwood looks at least 1/2 as good as yours.

Are those "amber" bamboo cores?
Looks very nice next to the leadwood.

Zradix, youll like the leadwood its prettier in person. Because you cant tell the grain in the pictures.  
Its whatever core BigJim put it in. The only woods are n the riser that I know are black and white ebony and leedwork which is the dark brown.

I did hear about it. That's great news for the county, and great news for me when I visit home

An artistically and extremely well crafted bow…

Michael honored me Saturday by permitting me the splendid experience of running several arrows through his dream bow.  Considering that she is 54”s and I draw a little over 28’, she exhibited a comfortable ride and was right on the mark.  Having historically not being a short bow proponent, this particular bow would be both a comfortable and confident fit within my hunting setup.

Thank you Michael for sharing the enlightening experience and thank you Big Jim for the wonderful and valued contributions of which you continuously provide to our beloved traditional world.
