Saqsquatch spoted in route to SC
« on: May 01, 2012, 07:46:00 PM »
Received message from Kirk at Big Foot Bows that my Sasquatch TD longbow shipped, YIPeeee. [email protected], Bocote riser with black flares, cut 1/8" past center, custom grip, black glass limbs. Straight forward no nonsense hunting weapon.

That's a good looking bow. There's something about grainy contrasty wood that just looks right.

Blaino, about as basic as Kirk builds except for the riser wood choice and custom grip. But she is easy on the eyes thanks to Kirk's skill as a bowyer.

Owlbait, if it were only a td.

PaddyMac, when Kirk sent a pic of the Bocote board he had me hook, line and sinker.

Thanks billy, can not wait to string her up and let a few go. Hardest part is probably waiting on the courier.

Kirk was very helpful and easy to work with on this build. I would highly recommend his services to anyone without reservation. Learned a lot about the Sasquatch bow, construction and person from the multiple emails exchanged.

Very nice.  Please give us a report after you have shot your bow.  I am waiting on Kirk to build mine but probably won't happen until late June/early July based on my order.

iohkus, whatever she likes the best,  ha ha, lots of fun dialing in a combination. Hoping to use gold tip ultralight 300's with lots of pile weight since she is cut past center.
What do you have ordered?

That's a good looking bow katman..seems like everybody's going with longbows. Hope Kirk hasn't forgotten how to build a recurve. I'm looking for one, hopefully next month.
