Check out my Timberhawk!!!!
« on: March 07, 2007, 08:21:00 PM »
Love the bow, I would put it up against many of the top names I've shot in a couple years. I had it traded but decided to give it a few more shots before it went bye-bye. I'm sure glad it didn't get shipped off to a new owner. I've emailed the bowyer and hope he does the right thing, but if not, Hey it's only $650.00.

No harm Kenny, Thanks for asking, this bow even broke smooth, I had a self bow do the same a few years back and it wasn't so nice. It does make you a little gun I mean bow shy for awhile though.

Glad to hear your ok. Ouch, I know what you mean about gun shy, had a selfbow blow a bottom limb, kinda makes you jumpy when you hear a cracking sound.

Scott is good people. I'm sure he'll treat you right. I'm just not sure why you had to dis him  :saywhat:  and his bows  :banghead:  . You think $650 is alot for a custom bow? You should make try and make one

I saw no dissing (disage?)  It sounds to me like he has nothing but love for the bow!

Joe, it doesn't look like Gizzard was trying to speak poorly of Scott.  To me, it sounded like he was bummed out about losing $650 but was trying to put a good face on it.  Did I misread his post?

i also saw no "dissing". from what i've heard about scott i'm SURE he'll do the right thing!

HOWEVER, i probably wouldn't have posted before speaking to scott though. it just seems a little unfair to the bowyer. JMO

Gizzard,
 I'm also sure Scott will make good on this. I've been dealing with him for 8 years now. I buy & sell other bows quite often, but I'll never sell my first Hawk.
Also, I've heard of a few "Greats" bows blowing up: Morrisons, Widows, Blacktails, etc. It happens.

The bow blew up, happens. I think Gian was more happy about having both his eyes still. When Scott makes good on it Gian will post that too. I don't see any dissing or really anything unfair here, it happens and nothing wrong with sharing it.

Bummer about the bow, if there is any warranty or anything, my guess is all will go well...Joe completely misread the original post...do we use terms like "dissing"

Not sure what you mean by dissing his bows NightHawk, When I say I would put it up againist alot did I say alot of bows I've shot that's a good thing. If you want to elaborate that would be fine. The other guys understood what I meant just fine, maybe if you reread what I posted you'll see something you might have overlooked before. This bows out performs many of the TOP RECURVES I've shot this year. Joe, I've spent that plus some on customs,( Up to 900 ) this was not my first custom by far. I know how hard the bowyers work to kick out these bows. I'm not trying to start a Pi##ing match here, but I am Irish and can't describe what I felt when I read your post  :mad:  , However, like my Dad always told me just get over it. I'm good now  :biglaugh:  I wasn't trying to trash Scott at all just giving my BROTHERS a heads up on what happend. Talk at ya later, Gian

Later, Gian
