Ron B...It's a far cry from those heavy weights you shoot but if I can't handle it I'll give it to my wife...  :thumbsup:

Thanks guys.

Pete, It's my second. I have one of John's '59 Kodiak replicas and I love it. Guess I'm gonna have to add more pegs to my bow rack.   :biglaugh:

Well, it came earlier this afternoon and it's even more striking in person. The myrtle lams are just awesome looking. After an initial getting acquainted shooting period, here's what we're doing now at 18 yards. I think we're going to get along just fine.

Glad it worked for you. Those lams are pretty rare on a Bigriver, John doesn`t use them much. Looks like a keeper.
