Well I was in a discussion about the Dalaa here on Trad Gang a while back and of course the DAS subject came up and suddenly I was kindly offered the chance of buying a DAS master riser from Jason R. Wesbrock...
We agreed on a price and soon the riser was on its way

Mr Wesbrock is a good man to do business with too, he kept me informed of the process and when due to illness couldnt make it to the post office untill a day after he said he could, he threw in an extra grip at no cost!

now all I have to do is break it gently to the wife....

Better to ask for forgiveness then permission. :D

Here are some more pics (that little strane stab is a smooth stabilty stab designed for wheelie bows, but boy does it work well on the DAS!)

Good for you, stabilizer looks strange but if it works for you great-

I think the best way to avoid that kind of problem is the way I did with my fly fishing equipment. You need to have such a large pile of gear that your wife won't notice any additions or subtractions, the latter of which is unlikely.

Yeppers, I agree with BD, just hang it in the garage with all your other stuff, If she happens to see it, just tell her its been there for at least a couple of years.

It works for me........
Nice Bow

Awesome bow! Those limbs look absolutely wicked. The Hex4s I had were absolute buggers to string, and those look even wilder. The Master I had (which is now maxwell's

) was technically the best bow I've ever laid my hands on...but I don't mind the little extra length of my longer DAS, so that's what I kept.
Congrats once again! Discovering and messing with DAS bows is quite a lot of fun

thanks

Stringing can be tricky yes, Sid at border recommends the "loop sliding along the limb" type of stringer and not the "both tips" type of stringer. I used one today and it worked a treat.

There is something special about this bow... its gonna be a keeper thats for sure!

That never works on my wife, she always figures out when I buy something new. Luckily she understands my hunting obsession. She says shed rather have me do that than go out drinking.

Well timing is everything they say

So my lovely wife is off for a weekend with the girls.. on her way out I popped a little cash in her hands and said have a great trip.. as she smiled I said oh, and I have bought a new bow! hehe... it went as smooth as those hex5s draw up

Congrats Nathan

Your DAS is a fast, smooth kind of bow...
When Nathan called me and told me that the limbs was arrived, the lunch place for the day was planned quickly :D

I have to say that I never been interested in these metal risers, but after testing Nathan`s DAS....I have to admit that there is an ad from me on the classifieds asking if somebody have a DAS riser or bow for sale

I`m really impressed with the comfortable feel I did get shooting this one.

And Nathan... of course it was the bow that made the killshots from 30 and 40 yards :D nothing to do with that, you are the gold medalist from the Norwegian championship 2009 in field archery..

Haha! Thanks Ronny!
Well after "outing" me like that publicly I had better mention that Ronny aka Margly is aslo not a bad shot himself... winning Gold in this years Norwegian Bowhunter championships!

Ronny turned up within 5 minutes of me getting the bow haha, and the next day he was back with some of his latest purchases from Trad Gang members... Ronny is suffering from a real bad bow buying compulsion

I think in the last week alone he has added 3 bows to his ever growing stable....
So do the man a favour.. i you have got a DAS... DONT sell it to him

The more bows you have out the harder it is to spot a new one, safety in numbers.
