*Big Jim's Wicked Snake Work*
« on: April 05, 2011, 06:32:00 PM »
I acquired a Thunderhorn 3 piece longbow from Jake Holcombe aka COMBER, and we talked about getting the limbs skinned, as I am a fanatic with skinned bows..Jake suggested contacting Big Jim, and the rest is history..Dealing with Big Jim was nothing short of fantastic; he answered several questions, worked his tail off to find perfectly matched skins for my bow, and above all, was very reasonable for the magic he worked. If you ever want a quality snake job done on your bow, and quick turn around contact Big Jim..Comber, my hats' off to you too!

Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.

Thanks for all of the compliments everyone..there is something magical about snaked limbs..adds "sneakability" to my bows.

I can honestly say that Big Jim not only impressed me with his talent, but he is just a good ol boy at heart too..I wont hesitate to have another bow skinned by him in the future.

Scott my man that there's unbelievable! That was the only thing that bow was missing. Don't get any ideas when I get my all black Black Canyon longbow because I'm going to call BigJim and make sure he finds me a pair of skins almost as nice as yours. I can see it know after the public see's BigJim is the utimate "Skinner" I'm going to be on a long list when I need some skins. I'm glad this worked out for you Scott because you're well deserving of a beautiful bow.
BigJim you're simply phenominal.
