My New Sonic Flight Deluxe, WOW!
« on: May 14, 2010, 06:38:00 PM »
Here is my new Sonic Flight Deluxe from Hermanns Archery. Fred was fantastic to talk and deal with! Answered all my questions and built me a perrrrrrfect bow. This thing can really shoot!    :scared:  

Specs are: 64", 52# @ 29". Riser is a beautiful Bacote cut 3/16" past center and the limbs are Bacote w/bamboo cores. Also included is a matching Bacote allen wrench. She really flings an arrow. Please enjoy the eye candy.    :thumbsup:

Colin, the grip is one of the things I really got excited about when the bow arrived. I was amazed at how my hand fit perfectly to the riser.

Thanks everyone.   :thumbsup:  Taking her for a stumping run tomorrow.

Looks great. Grip looks beefy. Might be too big for me. Would be fun to shoot one sometime.

Mike, that's just it, the riser is not beefy. I have a small hand and it fits it perfectly. I'll take a pic of me holding the bow.

The bow has a very nice bend to the limbs also. Thought I'd share a pic of her at full draw.    :thumbsup:

That really is a great pic with the grip, thanks. Without that perspective I was thinking, nice, but too thick. How did you come to find this bowyer and this bow?

Mike: I learned about Fred and his bows from Trad Gang member Tater(Pat) when I was looking for some ideas for a 3pc T/d longbow.

Jim: Here some unstrung pics as requested.

Thanks for sharing T.W. Great looking bow. I'll bet it will put meat in the freezer and smiles on your face. Nice pics, wish I could do that with my camera.
