Great bow. I have a Signature that I've often contemplated selling but it's just one of those bows that you can depend on. It shoots great and will never let you down. As far as I'm concerned the Lees have pretty muched perfected their design and there isn't much need to mess with it.
I'm sure you could make antler limb bolts but would you want two antler bolts on each limb? I'd like to see it if you do.

The bezel used on the Bob Lee limbs inserts into the limbs so making antler limb-bolts would not be straight forward. If you could find some bushings that fit the limbs it would work. I've thought about making some but I don't think it would look good with one antler-bolt and one regular on the same limb, and two antler-bolts per limb would be too much IMO.
Great bows...I've tried many and the Lee take downs are my favorite.

I have a 64inch, 66# BL Signature that I'm just starting to shoot. It is a very efficient bow and throws my 730 gr arrows very well. I'm with the others, not sure about how the antlers bolts would look. But if you figure it out please send us a photo.
Kip- Your bow and knife set look very classy. Mike

I was at a bow shoot yesterday at Waukegan Bowman club in south east Wis. where I watched a guy shoot at moving ping-pong balls floating up and down on a cushion of air from a vacuum out-port. He stuck eight of them. Keep in mind you have to center punch the floating ball at 18 yards in order for it to stick. He was using a Bob Lee Signature and told us it was his favorite bow. Ha! We could all see why- it fit him well! Ha!

I have a older signature,very nice shooter, I am as accurate with this bow as any recurve I own.
Antler limb bolts would be difficult for sure.
Question? has any one seen (in person) the shedua models. Wondering how nice the wood is? Shedua, from what I have seen on other bows is not the prettiest of woods, maybe they got their hands on some nicely figured wood, just curious.

I bought the Classic Elite Takedown longbow in 2007 and I love it. Its not the fastest bow but, Its a great shooting bow.

Great bow, I love my classic elite 48 at 28. I have already ordered a second set of limbs for her. For me, she shot better than my psa 111 so I sold that one. Bhill

Kip--nice idea with the accessories--good job!
I wish Lee's would offer choices of exotics woods. I can certainly understand why they don't but I would really love to have a Myrtle/Bolivian Rosewood Signature Elite Recurve.

Hey Kip, that is a nice looking lee you have there. I see that is a great hunting bow also. I have a couple recurves, one older 62" and a newer short riser 58". They both shoot great. I was thinking of maybe trying a Widow but after shooting one this past weekend at the Sherburne 3D shoot I changed my mind. I'll stick to my Lee's.
Also Kip, did you shoot the Sterling Harold shoot a few weeks ago. I shot on Sat, lots of fun as always.

Hi Tony I bought a predator very nice bow but no better than what I had with my Lees.I tried a 56" last season O.K. but not enough diff to have 3-of them so just kept my 2-58".I shot the Sterling pretty good Sat. but Sunday terrible.I did not spend a lot of time there b/c out of town family at home.Kip

Kip, I know what you mean. I keep thinking I need to get a different kind of bow but I keep coming back to my Bob Lee's. They may not be the fastest but you cannot find a better shooter in my eyes. I guess they just fit me and my style of shooting.
