Thanks Ben , yes a sleeve handle will be available as well as the bowbolt system.
All three bows have Yew veneers BMG, that one is an exceptional set isnt it?

Working on getting them on the site by the first of the year , for now feel free to call and ask questions or PM me.
Takedown for now will be two piece only , maybe three in the future , I am working on that idea right now, got some crazy things in my head, now I just have to get them out.

Well there you have it, the peek is over.  Nice work Ted Sorry about tooting your horn for you but I saw how those look and how well they shoot.  Nothing like that should continue in the dark.

You are forgiven SecondSeason should be starting on your bow this week or next, spent the day cutting up yew logs to laminations yesterday, should be able to find a nice set for your new bow.

I was at Raptor Archery and Ted let me shoot the Signiture bow with stippled grip, what a super nice,smooth and quiet bow.  You guys out in this neck of the woods need to get by and check this bow out.  You will be impressed!

So the sneak peek is almost ready to go.  Stopped in at Raptor Archery last saterday to see my soon to be "New" bow.  WoW what a piece of art.  Ted worked with me to fit the handle to my hand, I can almost see it now the arrow slipping off the string and heading straight for that huge Tom turkey.  month and a half to go thanks Ted.

Wow, Ted, that profile sure resembles my Anderson Hyak.  It sure is a great shooter.

Wow! That bow profile looks outstanding-what is the delivery time for a 50# 64" bow with leather grip?
