So true, and it will be my first bow with a beavertail grip! That is looking sooo sharp!   :thumbsup:  

I'm sure it will launch my tapered arras with authority.

I'll make a shooting report when she gets in!

Thanks Bob!   :goldtooth:  

There is something magical with the osage/cocobolo combo

I still can't believe he charges so little for that kind of bow!

Beautiful, that looks like a shooter for sure.

My dad is getting one made too, hopefully it will be in Fayette County before we get there the 18th so I can test it out.

Our family has a long history of the son taking the dad's best stuff when he leaves.

Why would his new bow be any different?

Beautiful bow!!!  This is the second bow I've seen of Big Jims and I am very impressed!!!  I'm gonna have to give that guy a call sometime!
