Big Jim Thunderchild Twins :)
« on: October 21, 2010, 05:14:00 PM »
I just received the Thunderchild Twins today!!!!

This whole threat started because I want one of Jim's Bows and saved pictures to help me decide what woods I wanted. Well the Twin Thunderchilds are here and I could not be more pleased. It's raining here so I am shooting at 10' in the house but I love the feel of these bows. I like them and well the woods are drop dead gorgeous!!
After I shoot them a bit I'll add to this post but right now I can't quit holding and staring at them. The Tiger Myrtle, Crotch Walnut and Sheep Horn accents, give me the feeling of real quality. We decided to reverse the woods so that we could show the best of both.

They are 56" 45&50@28

Well done Jim, Well Done!!!

Thank You


They are in the slideshow    :)    But here is a peak....

I just noticed they will be the 300th picture in the show:)

   
   


Great Job Jim I Love the Twins....

Thanks guys I love them. I'm still playing with them in the house. I think my wife got nervous and went shopping  :)

The grips are exactly the same. The two color woods make them look different but they are twins:)

Steve I think you are right but I don't know if I want the cure  :)

3feathers the Buff shoot like a dream smooth as silk, quiet, forgiving and repeatable. I think that will be the general consensus from all who own one  :)

" They are visiting Buff their Big Bro    :)  "

  Kip I understand why the wife went shopping! Lol! Those are simply two of the most awesome bows I've seen come out of the Big Guys shop, and that's saying alot. I'm so glad for you my friend. You picked out some incredible woods and Jim did his usual magic. Congrats, and don't be shy about posting a lot more pics!   :notworthy:    :notworthy:    :notworthy:

Danny both the Walnut and Myrtle grow in California, that's what I was after and the "little guy made it happen"

Mudd maybe somday I'll be in your neighborhood with the family:)

I just got back from the dentist. I had a crown get loose. My cheek is full of Novocain but still had to stop at the range with the twins a launch a couple arrows, all I can say is   :bigsmyl:  ....I didn't have enough time to send more than a half dozen each but I love them!!! I can't wait to work up some arrows for them and give them a real test.

These little bows have a heft that does not feel small to me and are very easy to shoot!!

I was going to say that I can't wait for mine, but I guess I will have to. The wee man sure makes some great looking bows. Mine should be due around January. Woo Hoo!

The quest to improve is so focused on a few design aspects & compensating for hunter ineptness as to actually have reduced a bow & arrow’s effectiveness. Nothing better demonstrates this than mech. BHs & speed fixated designs
