My new to me Big Jim bow. WOW is all I can say.
« on: September 06, 2010, 01:04:00 PM »
Just went out and shot my Silvertip and my new Big Jim Bow "Dalmation". WOW what a bow. I could not put the Big Jim bow down. Shot the tip a couple of times and the rest of the session it was only "Dalmation". Fastest and most stable longbow I have ever shot. She is my go to bow now. What do you think of her?

 
 
 

 

Aren't those Dalmation vaneers killer???

Awesome bow! Yes, that Dalmation makes for beautiful, unique limbs. I had pics of mine up last week. What accent wood is in the riser? I have Ziricote in mine, and it worked perfect. Is yours a one piece or two piece? I know she's an great shooter. Congrats, and welcome to the club!

Thanks guys, she is 62" AMO and 50# @ 28". The weight is perfect for me, and Danny you are not getting my tip. LOL

DannyBows, if I remember right the accent wood is Macassar Ebony in the riser. It goes great with the Dalmation.
