Jim is a fine person....and Barb keeps him straight.  It was good to see him this past weekend.  Always enjoy doing business with him.  Even when he was busy he found time to make me up a string that I needed badly.  Thanks Big Jim.

huntingarcher- Harry is right, but I don't know Potter.  I have been in Georgia for the last 17 years, but I am a Viking- born and raised in Minnesota. Don't ever remember being able to lift too many deer like that back in Minn.

Grew up in Albany Minnesota (near St. Cloud). My father was the local Veterinarian there. We pretty much new everyone. Had no problem finding places to hunt.
I now live in Albany Georgia. Talk about a climate change! Been here for 17 years now. Both places have there enduring qualities.

I lived the first 6 years of my life in East Grand Forks Minnesota before God blessed me when we moved to the great state of West by God Virginia.

I have nothing but good things to say about Big Jim, he's the one that introduced me to quick stick when I ordered a dozen blems from him.

I have some inserts and 300g points coming to me monday from him, and can't wait to tune up my arrows to my new bow.  And once I get things tuned, it should'nt be long before I order some broadheads.

Does Big Jim make recurves?

I don't think that he does, but I'd certainly never speak for him. Drop him a line...
