My Stalker being built!!
« on: October 22, 2011, 09:37:00 AM »
Got some pics of my bow being built by South Cox of Stalker Recurves. I am so excited I just had to share it with somebody.
But first I would like to say of the 8 custome bows I have had built for me South has been the most pleasant bowyer I have ever worked with... If you want a truly great experience when ordering a bow I would highly recommend South. And I haven't even gotten the bow yet. His customer service I think ranks right up there with Black Widow. I am really looking forward to ordering from him again ...  :)

And finally the final special touch he is going to artfully put on it to make it a very special one of a kind bow for me.

If you feel just a little excited and little out of control, then there should be a very good reason.

He builds a good looking bow......I have been looking at his stuff!
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

That is a really beautiful bow. I'm sure you will enjoy it.
