First Ever for me New Bow
« on: January 18, 2008, 02:21:00 AM »
Just recieved today in the mail from SRTA. I have been saving up for a new one and could not pass this one up. The new Black Creek Banshee.
Forgive the cobwebs on the cieling. Typical bachelor pad.     Not even tuned and throws arras like a dart. 10 Degree windchill today and I could only take about an hour out back. Tomorrow is another day.

You must be a little more sophisticated then me when I was baching it. I had books but not in a glass case put away.  :)  I really like your bow, good lines and colors.

Great lQQking bow. Workmanship is very smooth blending of overlay lines.

Bows hanging from a bookshelf? Definitely a bachelor pad..

Hey guys thanks for all the positive comments. John has just recently added this custom bow to his line at SRTA. I believe he even has one of the prototypes left. I was looking at that one real serious but thought it maybe a little heavy for me. I was going to have one made especially for me but this was perfect for my draw lenghth and only a couple #'s lighter in draw weight desired. And I really liked the looks of this one. The woods are Osage & Bacote riser w/ Zebrawood limbs. Brittman the reason I went with the bow was because the characteristics reminded me of the Shrew that you sent me. Same length, similar draw weight,and the forward riser with a slight R/D design. And sticshooter, the osage handle neck knife that you supplied is a real nice match.

That's a nice bow Fredrick!  How many bows have you bought in the last year?  You are worse than me!  You going for a record?  What do you consider the best you have tried lately?
