OH THE JOY fo a full bow rack!
« on: October 08, 2009, 07:43:00 PM »
It is rainy season here and we have been hit with almost constant rain for the past month so I have not been able to shoot and take pics of some new bows like I ususally do so thought I would show off my bow rack.

 

 

 

Top to bottom

1962 Bear Kodiak Special, 66",55#@28" a real gem, zero stress.(new to me)

Rare Jack Howard Jet with maple riser,66",55#@28"

Zipper SXT longbow,zebra/bacote riser,zebrawood limbw,62",62#@28"

Jack Harrison Siberian Wolf, beautiful cocobolo riser with sheep horn overlay and tips, 62",63#@28"(new to me)

Dale Dye Trails End one piect cocobolo riser, elm limbs, 62",60#@28"(new to me)

My beloved Brackenbury Quest all zebrawood with ebony accents and custom wenge cores,62",64#@28"

Custom Blacktail Elite VL ebony footed with cocobolo riser and boo limbs with beautiful yew vaneers, 60",62#@28"

1962 Bear Kodiak, 60",50#@28" just pristine with zero stress

Morrison mini 14 ILF, zebra/phenolic riser foam core limbs with watersnake skins on the back.

Yeah I know there is an embty space,LOL, got a brand new custom Schafer Silver Tip on the way to fill the spot, all zebrawood riser and limb vaneers, 62",58#@28"

Don,

It will be coming to you very soon for your special touch, the original finish is getting very thin and I need it protected from all this wet weather,LOL.

I've heard that last statement come out of your mouth before Danny.

Since your giving bows away, I'll take the Morrison.

Oh, ok I missed that, its alright then. I just traded for a Brack and can't wait to shoot it and become friends. I'll get a Silvertip at some point also.

That is a great collection of bows. But you said the dreaded words that haunt me, in the form of my wife reminding me that I to said, "I'm done buying and trading bows.". She now tells me to not even bother saying I'm done dealing. Seriously you have some really nice bows!

Naw, you do not hate me Bubba,LOL. you are just envious,LOL. Yep, be good to hunt with you again.

RLA, I have owned, at one time or another all  of the top end bows and then some, probably been through well over a hundred bows in the last several years and everyone on here knows how I go through bows,LOL. But I can honestly say that I have the bows I want now, no others out there for me to try,LOL. I am happy with my selection and they all fit me well. Only thing that might tempt me would be a 1970 Type 1 Bear A or B riser or a 59/60 Kodiak in a 60# weight at a decent price.

...there's always one more!   :biglaugh:   But it looks like you have plenty to play with until you find that '70s Bear!

Beautiful collection of bows, but I noticed a glaring flaw. You only had a picture of 1 arrow rack. With only 1 rack of bows, it seems you still have a lot of shopping left to do. But, at least, that is a real good start.

Danny,

I agree with Sam. It looks like you got a couple of spots left to hang a couple of more bows. Don't stop now! You might want to buy another bow rack to fill!!!!
