OK Terry, I'll have to say I've been in the presence of Tamo Ash veneers before... but, I don't think I noticed it though... may have been distracted by something, a 10 point something!  ;)

I'm really liking this bow!  I split one Hush Puppy and put each half at the 1/4 mark on the string and whalla... silent bow.  Stuck one of my EFA quivers on it and it is ready to roll.  Drops my Goldtips where I'm looking time and time again.  It's very smooth on the draw, dead in the hand at the shot, and quieted down easily, and I'd say it is a performer.  

Keeper for sure, and I think I'll have to give Jim a shout and order another around 70# @ 29".  Now I'll just have to pick which woods...

Oh and Terry, I thought Tines was your 60# and Sizzle was your 70#?  I remember you brought Tines along the day after shooting that buck to track him with, but it wasn't the bow you used to shoot him with the night before...  Or is there another MOAB you used to shoot him with?

Jeff....'Sizzle' is the 60#er.....'Tines' is the 64#er and yes, I took it that morning on the recovery but shot that buck with the 70#er named 'With Authority'.....also a red cedar veneered MOAB.  

I only showed that pic because it showed the Tamo Ash better.

'With Authority' was the 1st words out of my mouth when I took my 1st shot out of that 70#er with a 680 grain arrow and it knocked over my 3-D Buck Target....

Here's a few pics of her....She also took a hog on her very 1st outing.....There was a white spot on that boar and I kept telling myself not to pick that as a spot if he was broadside.....but to pick it if it was quartering away, and he quartered at 25 yards....BULLS EYE!

       

       

     

     

     

     

Leatherneck....I'll see what I can find for a close up....

Day off today, went and got to know my MOAB a bit better.  Switched to a Selway as the heads I had to use are 125 grains and the only 125 grainers I have are Snuffers, Razorcaps, and Snuffer SS... gives me a bit more room in the hood for them.  

Loving this bow!  Everything I said earlier is still true today.  She is bucking for #1 slot with stiff competions of my Shawnees.  Oh, and you wouldn't know this was a 58" bow to draw it!  Smooth as silk and no finger pinch at all.

Jeff,

I think that bow might be a little light for ya. Maybe even a little short. You should really consider getting rid of it before you break it. I know this guy..........................  :biglaugh:

Ben, I've already got another MOAB ordered.  Does that answer your question?  ;)  

Osage riser, bocote flare, 4 layer overlay (osage and bocote), Moose tips, with osage veneer on the belly and whatever veneer that is on the back of your bow with the horizontal grain... 60", 70# @ 29", and a dark brown leather grip.
