Robert, I'd like to hear what you think of the finger grooves. Congratulations! How long of a wait did it take?

I really like the finger grooves both my father and I already own one of his bows and the finger grooves just make it feel better in the hand to me, it make it feel like it belongs to me. As for the wait it is about 11 monthes.

I choose Desert Camo Dymondwood for the riser and Juniper for the limbs.

Hey guys, not to brag, but my Robertson came in Saturday.  :goldtooth:   It shoots awsome.  It is kinda' funny, it is almost like the world slows down when you buy a new bow.  It only takes up normal pace when she arrives.  I hope yall enjoy shooting your new ones as much as I have.
