Raven came home to roost.....
« on: May 02, 2012, 02:41:00 AM »
Got a call from Jack on Sunday and picked up my new Raven yesterday. What can I say, at 80 he's still the man.  

Here are a few pics of this beauty, 56", 50# @ 28", static limb recurve. He is finishing off a set of 58", 51# longbow limbs for it as well.
I wanted to keep with the theme of a darker bow so chose African Wenge with a Zebrawood flare, with black phenolic and maple strips for the riser. Limbs are stained bamboo with Wenge wedges. Moose antler limb tips, thumbrest, and Jack's signature arrowhead compliment the package.

She shoots with authority, hits where I'm looking, and is deadly quiet.

I'll wait for turkey season to end, then have Guru come over so I can shoot his Raven. Again, you have a real beauty there. I hope Jack passes down his knowledge to someone if HE ever decides to turn the business over.
