Got to meet Big Jim (and Barb) just this past weekend. I found him to be a "Gentle Giant" of a man. Real friendly & REALLY knowledgeable!

Big Jim builds an awesome bow. I ordered my Thunderchild on the 12th of this month. Now the long wait.

So BIG they tell "Big Jim Bunyan" stories here in the South and his pet Hogzilla that he tragically lost a few years back.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways-BOW in one hand-ARROWS in the other-Body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming-WOO HOO! WHAT A RIDE!

Big Jim is so big I seen him string a bow holding one limb in his crotch, push and pull method.

Saw him from a distance at Cloverdale a couple of years ago. I did not dare to get any closer.

Burt, glad you're enjoying to bow!  Not really, I miss it!   :(    ;)  When I get the funds I'm gonna replace it with a "plywood" takedown version.

Yep, Big Jim is as good as they come, heck of a nice guy and builds a great bow!    :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

Big Jim is an awesome character! Has treated me very well and given me straight honest answers. One of the few that takes the time to answer questions despite his busy schedule.
