New Big Jim Buffalo (Pics)
« on: March 01, 2012, 08:01:00 PM »
I had started a post a couple of weeks ago about my Big Jim Buffalo I was getting 62" 54#@29" draw. I got her today and could not be happier. Let me start by saying what a super guy Jim is to deal with. I got home from work and shot it this evening, and not only is this bow beautiful, but man will she shoot. I will post a few pics, the first pic is my second group of 4 wood arrows that I shot from about 18 yards. The bow just feels great in my hand, and shoots outstanding. The pics do not do the bow justice, nor do my words. I would just like to thank Big Jim for such a great bow. Very smooth, fast and hard hitting bow.

Great job on the wood choices.  I love darker wood on bows.  How does she shoot compared to other longbows you may have had/shot?
