Robertson fans, bow lust
« on: January 25, 2007, 07:14:00 PM »
Man...I had one on order and was perfectly happy with what I had ordered and with the wait.  So then I'm cruising their web site and spot this one that's ready to go out the door.  What's a guy to do?  

 Bow  

So I emailed them and checked and well instead of waiting I have one coming in the mail now!  Don't visit their site if you know what's good for you.

Nice looker!  And you're going to be even happier with the way it shoots.
What are the specs on it?  (Just in case you don't like it and want to sell it right away!)  :p

They don't mail those to Alaska, do they? Now your next wait is the SPEEDY mail or shipping service.  :bigsmyl:

Short Riser 58" 55@28"

Cocobolo/Ebony, Juniper lams and of course the Vision comes standard with Bamboo core.

I have a Purist longbow...but it may be taking the backseat for a while.

Other orders usually get here pretty quick 4-5 days, so hopefully I won't lose too much sleep.

Remember, you still have to pay rent.

Interesting.  I was just looking through his bows in stock after deciding I really don't need to be shooting a 70# longbow out of a tree when the temps are single digits.

Besides, I only have one kid in college this year.
So don't wait until you retire to go hunting and fishing.  Don't even wait for your annual vacation.  Go at every opportunity.  Things that appear urgent at the moment may, in the long run, turn out to be far less so.

Pretty bow  :thumbsup:   I'm loving my OD longbow from them.  You'll have to stick another nice bear this spring to break it in.  :archer:

Juneau, you are 100% correct.  I'm waiting on a Purist and then I look at Dick's pictures and come up with some other combo's that I 'think' may be better.  If bows were finished in a week, we'd have less anxiety........Shick

That's a nice one for sure!  I got bit doing the same thing about a year ago and still fight the urge to pick up the phone every time I visit his sight.  It'll look even prettier in person and shoot better than that!

Luke, he's getting cocky ever since I told him he could pitch a tent in the back corner of our lot if and when you kicked him to the curb.
