Well I finally got my Orion from Wingnut and Jason... Let me tell you it is an absolute work of art. Draws so smooth and shoots fairly fast. She is 58" - 55 @ 28. Bocote/coc-bola riser and bocote veneers over boo. This is beyond a doubt one of the prettiest bows I have ever laid my hands on.

Got the curve limbs as well...

Yes they are beautiful bows and shoot just as great. Hope you have many good times with her. I should have gotten long bow limbs when I ordered as well.

Great looking bow! Can't wait for mine to get here - speaking of, I may need to get ahold of Mike for some more limbs....

Those guys at "Dryad" sure put out a great bow.

Mike and Jason make a great bow... this is a low wrist and my hand literally rests against the arrow. This is my style of shooting from the old days when all ya could get was a straight limb longbow. I always shot with my hand high up on the riser. I can tell you my second shot at 12 yards I hit a 1/4" diameter dot on my target. Next arrow hit the other one.

Chris,

Yours is in process now too.

Had a fellow over the other day that saw the riser glue up and ordered one with the figured bubinga and birdseye maple.

Yours will be an ugly bow too. LOL

Mike

Chris Surtees · « **Reply #19 on:** January 09, 2009, 10:29:00 PM »

Thanks Mike,,,and you know what they say even ugly bows need love too

Looking forward to seeing some pics!

There are some mighty fine looking bows coming out of your shop here lately.

Chris
