I would be interested. I would say around 50 pounds would be good for most folks.

Here is a pic of the two handles. The grey/green is right handed and the brown/grey is left handed. I didn't want to make them exactly the same as to show some options that folks can see. The handle is designed to fit the life line of your hand and allows for the hand to be placed about a 40% angle. Now this is not the only handle option that I do but I believe that it allows a real proper fit to the handle.

I would like to also get a chance but soon to be going overseas. (40-50lbs rt.)
What I would really like is to know more about the handle you have on website that appears to be a single fingergroove. Interested. I'm partial to the radiused shelf also. Nice looking bows. Where are you based at?

Is there any way to juggle with other members as to when to receive the bow? I woul REALLY love to take this on my hunt from January 8-16th for deer and hogs. Also will the bow be up for sale or auction at the end? Those are beautiful!

Dave;
I like the handles both a lot looking forward to try it out.

HMlongbow · « **Reply #25 on:** October 23, 2011, 09:50:00 PM »

I would have to say that they would be for sale after the pass around. Fisherking73 I will leave it up to you to see about the juggling around with the folks here. I don't think there should be to big of a deal, I hope. I will keep in touch and let you all know when the limbs will be done. Does anyone have a preference on limb core woods? I have bamboo and actionwood cores in stock, which is what I prefer over anything else.
Thanks and good shooting,
Dave

Thanks!

OK will communicate with other members and see if it can be worked out. Very stoked, great opportunity for me to try a custom bow since I have no shops or builders close by to me.

MarkLH · « **Reply #28 on:** October 24, 2011, 09:12:00 AM »

Interested here, right hand, 55# or less. Two weeks or under is more than enough time.

NormanDale33 · « **Reply #29 on:** October 24, 2011, 10:25:00 AM »

Great idea, and I am jealous of the 15!

Looking to hear what people say, and those are some nice looking risers.

HMlongbow · « **Reply #30 on:** October 24, 2011, 01:03:00 PM »

I should have my shipment of glass soon then the limbs will be glued up and the first on the list I will contact for shipping instructions.
Thanks
Dave

Thank you Dave for the chance. The last time I did this I got in trouble with the wife.....

HMlongbow · « **Reply #33 on:** October 26, 2011, 05:29:00 PM »

Thanks Bud and we will have to see what you all think. I feel that there are going to be alot of interests.
Thanks and good shooting,

sawtoothscream · « **Reply #35 on:** October 26, 2011, 10:56:00 PM »

i would love to try one. im a right handed. 50# at 28 should be fine for most.

joekeith · « **Reply #36 on:** October 27, 2011, 01:24:00 PM »

Have ya talked to Rodney Wright? He passed around one of his bows and would have real life experience in this sort of thing. BTW...Rodney sent out a fine bow, and was a good guy during the whole ordeal.

And YES, I'd like to try a RH one.
Thanks,
Keith

I have a hitman longbow thats 58'' and 55@28. Very nice bow and is a real shooter, it's my hunting bow this year!!!

HMlongbow · « **Reply #38 on:** October 27, 2011, 07:39:00 PM »

Andrew had to pull out his name because he is going to be deployed. So say some prayers for him and god bless him in his deployment. If dave19113 is interested you can be in the top 15 guys and be at the last of the list. I am going to be sending a right and left handed riser for this build. So everyone will have a chance whether right or left handed. I will need your addresses of everyone involved on the list. Please pm with your addresses so that they aren't public.
Thanks
Dave

I have the second limb in the oven now and looks as though tomorrow I will be working on the limbs to get them ready for limb caps and nock ends. The limbs should be around the 45-50lb range and have "mappa burl" veneers with bamboo cores. I can't wait to see what they look like as these are a new veneer I just picked up. Wait to see for pics.....
