and a looker.

Made by Kirk Lavender of Big Foot Bows. Heck of good guy to deal with. Spent many hours on the phone making sure that this bow would be exactly what I wanted.

This one is Mac. Ebony with a curly maple 'I' beam. 59# at 27". Very very smooth draw, nice easy pull right to anchor. I opted for the recurve limbs for this one, I have also shot the longbow limbs on a Sasquatch. Both limbs fling an arrow with some authority. The arrows are 605gr. and hit like a Mac truck. Both limbs are extremely quiet. The recurve limb feels like it gets a little lighter in weight further into the draw.

Arrows hit right where I aim. Possible due to the fact that Kirk took a tracing of my hand and made it fit the grip. It is easily one of the more repeatable grips I've had on a bow.

Construction is impeccable, top of the line. Comparable to all the big names.

That is beatiful! Great pics, shows off the craftsmanship real well. Another bow to add to the "want to shoot one" list.

Congrats on a great bow. Kirk really puts his all into his builds and is producing some really fine bows. That is some fine looking wood....

Damn, that is pretty. I've got a couple of Kirk's bows and I believe you're right, BMG, that the closer to you get to full draw the additional weight you're pulling is going up but by a decreasing amount per inch - makes a wonderfully smooth draw. My arrows fly like darts out of his bows.

As a fellow bowyer and personal friend of Kirks we do a lot of collaborating. In fact to the point that I am going to be the proud owner of his first (prototype) of his new onepiece recurve.

I was just recently informed that I will be the papa of a new 64 inch static recurve soon. I will be sure to give a detailed report when I get it.

Knowing Kirk and having shot his bows and him shooting mine I will say that if you are in the market for a bow that is one of the great bows being built today check out a Sasquatch by Kirk Lavender.

I will vouch for his bows being super fast, super quiet and of good workmanship. His designs and committment are top notch and he is a great guy to deal with, possessing integrity and honesty. You will get more than your moneys worth. God Bless you all, Steve
Oh buy an EagleWing once in a while too. LOL

Yep, these guys aren't to far from where I live. Good looking bows. There is a prototype carbon take down on Kirks web site that is a real looker.
