Dave..

I hear your "no splurging" sentiment loud and clear.

This bow is a pretty major splurge for me..no doubt about it.

This is my first truly made to spec bow.
I'm not one of the 3+ new bows a year to try guys....though how cool it would be!

Like a lot of us here, I'm just looking for that ONE bow. I did a lot of looking around before deciding on a sas LB.

I came to the decision to sell a couple guns to be able to afford this bow done the way I really wanted it.

I have faith this bow can be the ONE.

I just didn't like the thought of always wishing I had done it differently...so I went for it.

Of course we all have our limits and this bow was above mine so I had to make some sacrifices and sell some other toys.

...but let's face it..that critter won't care what kind of veneers or color glass spits that arrow at em.

Nice! It will be interesting to see if Mr. Landis makes his choices now or when he get's the dreaded "glue will take 40 minutes to dry, so what do you want?" emails first      :bigsmyl:

Still curious how that was replied to.

Naw, I might give Kirk a little guff but he's been amazingly patient with me over the last several months.

The results are beginning to show themselves in my riser and limbs! Very much looking forward to whatever is next!!!

Kirk is in a class by himself.

He has a relentless drive to do what's best as a bowyer and to educate and elevate the customer to a happy place, that is self evident!

I keep finding things to sell, too, John, but with my work having vaporized, I have to hold onto some items for survival sale.

I keep telling myself what few other bows I have will go on the block once this one makes love to my hand... but yeah...there will be some tough months of hard choices ahead on things above basic design issues!

What a delightful delemma!

This is a thread about great bows built by Kirk for 3 grown up "kids" waiting for Christmas...in March/April!   :)  

No discussion of worldy nuances. Pardon the distraction otherwise...

T-minus and counting, boys!
