He really does do nice work.
A guy on another forum needed a bow refinished and I recommended The Bow Hospital. After a phone conversation the bow was sent off. Upon receiving it back the owner couldn't be happier with the work that was done.
If I ever need a bow worked on I know where it will go.

Thanks for the kind words Rick. I hope that bow serves Ashley well for many years to come.  It's always fun to have a chance to work on bows with a special meaning like that one  does.

Sawtoothscream, are you able to email pictures of your bow?  I'd be happy to take a look.

I've thought of it, but not done it yet. Joe's work looks great and everyone speaks well of it. The pics don't lie. I first need a bow that I really like to be "shined up". That may happen soon as a 67 Bear is on it's way here.

I've had Joe refinish a bow for me.

He did a great job at a reasonable price, he completed it within the time frame he orginally gave me, and that accounts for a whole bunch in my book.

What more could you ask for?

I HATE to sound like a TightWad, but living on a VERY Fixed Income, I am asking about Pricing? I am going to Assume it Varies with each "Patient" and the "Illness" it has.
    With the Volume of Work Whip gets, and the Quantity of Happy Customers I have seen on here, the Prices MUST be Very reasonable.
    Whip does some Awsome Work, as I have seen by the Before & After pictures. I dont have a Bow that Needs "Attention" just yet, but i have a Line on one, a LongBow, dont know much about it, that I just may be contacting You about. IF I can justify the Purchase of said Bow to begin with. I know its 64" and Straight Backed, past that I have yet to actually lay eyes upon it. The description is "Rough Around the Edges, possible "Stress Marks, Blah, Blah, Blah".... Y'all know the Drill.
     I DO know, Joe  would be My Choice.

Joe does a great job at "HOSPITAL". I had a thunder stick 3 that was my favorite bow for many years but fell by the wayside as the years passed be cause of the weight. Joe and Istruck a deal and he took 5# off of it and once again it is my go to. Thanks again Joe.   MIKE

Nice work Joe. You just made one young lady very happy. I'm sure she'll be proudly showing it off this summer at the shoots. Way to go, Rick. Now there are TWO archery addicts in your house.

I sent Jow a bow to have a weight reduction. He has it now and from everything I have read he does great work.
