THINK I'M GONNA KEEP THIS ONE
« on: July 24, 2011, 01:51:00 PM »
started this bow a while back for me and finally got it finished. john sullins, lonnie shepard, and i get together every sunday morning and shoot at johns house. he has about 15 targets set up.
  well i had been struggling with my 58", 51# banshee tdr poundage wise, so i built this siren td, 62", 45#, hoping to handle the weight a little better.
  did shoot a little better, but felt a lot more comfortable shooting. thought i would give you some pics of it.   enjoy.

WOW!  I love the wood combo on this bow!  Beautifull bacote.  

P.S.  I'm am trully loving my Banshee.  I'm finally shooting every day to get ready for deer season.  I can not believe how dead in my hand this bow is.  No hand shock at all.  And this thing is wisper quiet.
