No chance Tim!!  You'll have to pry it out of my dead hands! LOL.

Can't wait for the pics!!


Mike - you bring up a good point...I'll just have to be extra careful and only hunt with it on pretty days (no rainy day hunts for this bow...at least not for the first few years).

Thanks
Michael

Simply stunning! Can't hear anyone complaining about the price of bows on this thread.

Can't wait for the final pics! I'm not too sure I'd have a grip wrap installed on that riser. It looks perfect without one.

Thanks guys...I'm glad you are enjoying the post.

Tim's work is pretty amazing!  Thanks again Tim for indulging me on the build along...I know a lot of other guys would not have taken the time to indulge a customer on a request like this...so my hats off to you Tim!

I need to try one of Tim's bows.  One of the few out there I have not shot.  His bows are "working art"

Im with you on that one Irish, Tims bows are just that, working art.  There was on in my specs for sale a few months back and am still kicking myself for not jumping on it.

Great build along, and thanks again Tim for taking the time to walk us through, I have really enjoyed it!

Tim how thick are those overlays on the limb butts? How do you keep the glue from squeezing out so you dont have to sand later and loose the sharp lines of the overlays?
Merry Christmas to you all down there. CS

Well..i hate to say it but she's done!  I have a few picks of Tim applying the leather grip (almost to pretty to put on top of the cocobolo riser...its really pretty...the pics don't do it justice)

Enjoy.

Thanks all for watching this post...I've really enjoyed it and got a really nice bow at the end.

I'll be in the tree with her the day after Christmas and will post a few pics of her when she draws first blood!

I love my Tree stick and know you will love yours. Don't forget to order the long bow limbs instead of another back up bow. It's great when traveling you basicly have a back up bow. Enjoy

Truely amazing bow.  I would have such a hard time taking such a work or art into the woods as I'm such a clutz.  I'd cry when it got it's 1st scratch...
Take care of her and hope you draw that blood soon!
