Caught A King Snake

[Chromebuck]

Just awesome!  Splendid "blurring" of the lines...Essentially a selfbow with the durability of a glass overlayed bow.  I think it's brilliant.  Does that mean you don't have to follow selfbow etiquette?  Go ahead son draw her to 29!

Thanks for sharing...

Caddo, in reality of course the only reason that it was built this way is just for show.  It does shoot just as good as any D shape longbow, so nothing given up.  But the unusual looks really add to the WOW factor.  And it showcases Ron's skill as a bowyer - the man is good!  

This bow was just so unique that I couldn't resist.  Although as a standard longbow it really doesn't fit my style, so we'll see if it stays in the stable or not.  I'll play with it some after turkey season is over.  But it sure is cool for now!

Oh, and grouseshooter, Debbie was at the banquet Saturday night with Ron.  She seemed to be doing pretty good, although I know she did have a treatment earlier that day that had kind of dragged her and they were headed out a little early that evening.  We're all praying for her success in the battle with cancer!

Congratulations Whip. That is a nice looking bow. I have two of Rons longbows & a Breed. They are great shooting bows.
You are going to like it.

That offset handle looks very similar to the self bow handles Stim Wilcox makes. Looks very natural to hold.

Joe,

Very neat bow. I bet the crook in the handle helps shooting accuracy.  genious!

Joe,
 That is a COOL bow and it drew really nice !!! I wish it was a LEFTY I would have bid on it at the auction :-)

[Kevin Winkler]

That's a cool looking bow! Good luck turkey hunting. When you get get sick of that bow....let me know, I might have to give it a try.

[Kingsnake]

Awesome bow! Thanks for sharing.

[Whip]

Looks like you need one in your future Kingsnake!

[Greg Szalewski]

Yep, you have to be careful at those PBS auctions. Just ask my wife, I always show restraint.  :rolleyes:  

Nice bow. You gonna be totin it at Ojibwa?

[Chuck Janssen]

Very good looking Bow Joe, Hope you have a ton of fun shooting it. I love to hate auctions, gets me in trouble every time. Unless like the last one and I spent Charlie's money. But he ended up with 3 very nice bows at a very good price. I need to start buy some of them for myself now.
Congrats on a cool bow.

I can bring it along, but I won't be shooting it.  Trying to stay dialed in with my turkey hunting set up.  My shooting stinks enough without throwing a totally different type of bow into the mix...

Great looking bow Joe....love the shape. I hear you with the last part about shooting different bows.

I guess I have to ask, can that be ordered? Would he do another for a customer?

[tradbower]

Justa awsome looking bow.  Congrates to the owner and the bowyer.

I'll be over tomorrow to try that one out for you.
