TJ- There has only been one 3 piece delivered to a customer. He is excited and enjoying as we speak. The riser is 13.5" and the limbs are designed to be very similar to my 1 and 2 piece longbows.

BigJim....That 3 piece looks amazing!!!  I found it yesterday on the other site and looked at it off and on all day...drooooling.  What's not to be excited about w/ that bow?  The riser is beautiful, but really doesn't hold a candle to the lams on those limbs!  WOW!  Awesome looking piece for art rt there.  I'd love to shoot it for sure..
Keep up the great work as from the looks of that 3pc it made my short list.

The only problem I have with my Buffalo Bow is that I keep busting nocks.  That started before I even left Jim's place.

Truly one of the best deals for the dollar.  I just have to start saving up for a two or a three piece.

Jim,as you know us Trad archers are a weird bunch of ducks and tell it like it is.If we say your bows are great and your a pleasant fellow to deal with I guess you'll have to wear that handle .As far as what your wife thinks thats just Pillow talk and doesn't really count on this site LOL.I'd love to try one of your bows.

I hate to admit this, but the only reason I havn't posted many pics here, is that it's too difficult for me (computer idiot)to post pics on this site. By the time my wife gets them posted, I'm in for a rough night. Wy can't it be easier to post here like it is elsewhere? i'm not the only one who thinks so either. three piece is posted on LW and GON Forum

Back to bows! My build time is running about 10+ weeks. This is changing though. I must have done something right, since I have sold 18 bows since christmas and new inquireys every day. I can only guess that it is from the help of my many new friends and there polight words. Well that and  my charming personality.LOL
Hunting season is bout over here though and that will put me back in the shop and hopefully keep that waiting period at 10 or less weeks.

I am going to do my best to get a couple of pics from two three pieces I have posted. Other wise I will have them on my temporary web page in a day or two.

thanks,bigjim

Like others said it here and on the other site, those bows are meticulously made, and an unbelievable deal too!

The more I shoot my buffalo bow, the more I like it!

Mike- I apreciate the pictures. I'm still working on my other pics too.

Shoot straight and often, Bigjim

I've never really liked the 3 pc bows until I saw the pic above.  I believe my next Buff bow just might be a 3 pc.  I hope you have plenty of that dalmation ebony Jim.   ;)

don't get online much anymore so late joinin in but did want to say I am lucky enough to own one of Jim's bows (one piece but hope to convert it to a two piece someday) and it has been my go-to bow almost from the first time i shot it (whenever my joints allow it). made meat first time i had it out so the mojo's definitely there and its a pretty bow, craftmanship is top notch and i think they're the best deal in the bow business---and you won't find an easier bowyer to deal with than Jim, he's a crackerjack.
