Another Ebony Big Foot
« on: January 24, 2012, 02:32:00 PM »
Since there are a couple of threads floating around here about some Ebony Big Foots, I thought I would show you mine.  Kirk gave a sneak peek of it a few weeks back, here is the finished product. It's Black & White Ebony, 60" Sasquatch, it's a takedown, but has the hidden limb bolts so nothing shows on the back of the bow. A really cool feature.
  As the rest of Kirk's bows, it shoots really nice, workmanship is top notch and he was a great guy to deal with throughout the process.
  I haven'g had much time to take pics, so these are some that Kirk sent just prior to shipping, with the exception of the one with the arrow. I took this after my first shot at 15 yards with it. I had Kirk put a insert in the riser for a Hog & Varmit light, in case your wondering about the light on the bow.
  Kirk may can post some more pics if he gets time.  RW

WOW Roy. That is a stunning bow. The Black/White Ebony is really nice.

The hidden limb bolts are pretty cool too.

What is the draw weight?

You reckon that thing might kill a pig?

Congrats on a beautiful bow.

That's very sweet R.W.  I need to ask Kirk to put a bushing for a screw in light on mine too!  Are the hidden limb bolts provided on all Sasquatchs ???

What limb veneers did you choose, are they action boo cores with B/W Ebony?

Ok, that does it. Black & white ebony is no doubt my favorite wood for vaneers.

Buck:  The hidden limb bolts are an option but are really nice. I think you will like the look.
The veneers are B&W Ebony with action boo core, couple strips of carbon in each limb as well. I got a serious new hog light, can't wait to try it out.  RW

Beautiful bow Roy, I JUST made an order with Kirk TODAY. After looking at yours I may be making some updates/changes. Kirk said I could expect it sometime in May. Bigfoot bows seem to be coming on strong........good reason! He may get busier and busier!!
Hmmmmm. I know you think you understand what you thought I said, but I'm
not sure that what you heard is what I actually meant!
