I readily admit to being a shameless Dan Toelke fan and will probably never order a bow from another bowyer but I have seen a couple of J.D. Berry bows and shot one and besides being a work of art there was nothing not to like about the way it shot either.

Thats just a tease! The pics are so small, my old eyes can't see the bow. I have a Berry Taipan that is incredibly gorgeous and a great shooter. Congrats!

Always admired the JD Berry line of bows. Never shot one but really liked the craftsmanship he places in his bows. Looks like you got a great one!

Hey Bro. Take your next picture with the bow against a white wall. It will show better. Maybe I'll get to see it next trip back.

Heading back to NH tomorrow. I'm glad that I was able to get 1 last hunt in out at camp. No shots possible, but I saw 4 doe, 17 turkey, & 3 opossum.

I have several, James is an artist. An Apollo is in my future 4/sure! I've noticed over the years his influence in many bowyers out there....He's the Master!
