Snaked Big Jim Buffalo Bow
« on: December 15, 2010, 12:44:00 AM »
This is not my bow just posting this for Big Jim.....
---------------------------------------------------------
Jim's Quote .....  "Just a few pics of a bow that I think turned out pretty well. I have done a couple similar to this and the pacific yew seems to be a perfect backround for a copperhead.
This bow has been sent to Michigan. I have been waiting on the skins for several weeks. It can be difficult finding copperheads long enough to skin a 64" long bow. The skins look cool even it you don't like snakes. Bigjim

specs: Two piece Buffalo with Pacific Yew limb veneers and cocobolo riser 64" - 46#'s @ 32" the tips are of Giraffe Bone"

I'd have to say that his bows are world class in my oppinion. I've never shot one but judging by the attention to detail they must be really awesome.

Wow that's a beauty for sure!  I like the skins added to the riser, really a nice touch.

Very nice, I have a couple of monster 46" copperhead skins that I am thinking about using soon. Thanks for the info about the yew, I have another bow with some other home grown Copperhead skins but the background was dark.
