You forgot to mention the Kudu horn finger grooves and
matching Kudu tips on the limbs. Riser woods are Philippine
Ebony outside and Koa inside. I'm glad you like it.

Until next time...good shooting,

I love a bow with skins on the limbs and those look incredible.

I have been trying to find a set for a year with no luck.

Been shooting a Morrison since 01. Shoot other bows at shoots guys have adn w/ vendors...but nothing seems to be an improvement over Bob's design. Not to say there are none as good or better...just haven't found one I like more.

I recently sold some original recurve limbs for the Cheyenne that were a bit too much weight since shoulder surgery, and very fortunately stumbled into a set of used longbow limbs for the Cheyenne...foam core and carbon!(Thanks again, Steelhead!)

OMG. I dropped weight on them below what I was shooting and I could hear Bob grinning on the phone when I asked if I'd loose performance.

He just could hardly control a giggle as he told me something to the effect of "not to worry, grasshopper" as the combo of foam core and carbon would outperform my standard limbs that draw 4# heavier.

The D limbs on a B riser makes for a longer bow than the same D limbs in recurve format, but hey... that I can get used to!

Many, many good bowyers and more coming along, but I'm happy being a one-bow man for now!

Doc Nock, that is funny!!!  I could hear Bob grinning on the phone as well when he talked me into 46# limbs.  I asked him if I could try them on my riser first before I bought.  He laughed and said absolutely, but I am convinced that they won't come back.  He was right.  After three shots, I chronographed both of my Morrisons and the 46# carbon foam longbow shot  within 2fps of my 52# shawnee.  Now I can shoot accurately for longer periods of time.

Josh, I got the string and it worked out great. Good call on the length. That's testament that you've done this quite a bit and know your stuff!

Folks, need a good string? Contact Josh. That's all I've got to say too that.   :D

Thanks Pete, it is beautiful here. Don't have far to travel to be in wilderness. Be sure to post pics when you get one. I love to look at them. Some day, I want to try one of his Dakotas.
