Man I'd better stay away from them at Denton Hill, that is one sweet looking bow.
Now we're digging where the taters are.

This is a 60" Sasquatch recurve with a 16" riser. The riser and limb backs are BW Ebony. This is a 2x carbon limbed bow. It is 49#@26".  The limb bolts are flush.

Other custom touches:
--Bear Compass
--Grip throat 4.25" in circumfrence (Like a T-Rex I have small hands)
--Riser tapers very thin to the limb faces

This bow is extremely smooth shooting and is the top performer in my chronograph -- the same FPS as one of my favorite bows that is 4 pounds HEAVIER in draw weight!

I've been sneaking peaks of those bocote bows and that ebony one from time to time, they are some real lookers!

My Sas is so pretty I can't take a picture that does it justice! I guess I better try again, it really should be on this thread!

Alright, I got some PMs "encouraging" me to dig out a few pics and I do have a few I can't remember if I ever posted here or not.

Day 1 coming out of the package! Zebra riser with bocote fang, limbs are zebra front and back covering yew cores.
   

In May I bought a bocote handled knife to match my fang. Got a nice close up of the riser here
   
Too bad the knife maker didn't have bocote as nice as Kirk...

I did a little 3d with riverrat2 snapped this one
   

Then the other night I was at the range and a guy sent me a PM wanting to see a strung profile
       

Like I said, my pics don't really do it justice but I am a happy camper!

Zradix, I cannot believe you let that bow go . Its drop dead gorgeous and if it shoots like mine does its an unreal shooter.

Beautiful bows guys,

God bless you all, Steve

I hope nobody has forgotten the 3rd sister, she had the best looking set of "limbs" of the bunch!

I have the one that Zradix sold, and I love it, I have a hard time keeping it in my hands as everyone loves to shoot it,  I have found that it really shoots a heavy arrow well, I made some ceder shafts that are just under 600 grains and it throws them down range with authority .   I would buy another one in a heart beat,

SWEEET!
I'm so glad it's getting used.
So pretty it deserves to be!

Kirk built me a bow not long ago. I told him I wanted it built for speed, smoothness of draw and to be 48lbs. at 29-1/2 and that's what it is.. I told him I don't want to second quess myself later and wonder if I could have picked up a FPS with this option or that. So we came up with a 64" TD recurve..what I wanted, with triple carbon, foam cores, no veneers, Black Walnut riser with Macasar Ebony I-Beam and satin finish.  

This bow draws smooth as silk..not one iota of stack or change in felt poundage from 7" to 8" brace height to as far as I've pulled it...29-1/2". It really shoots fast and hits hard down range. This was my first session with it at about 20yds.

I was hoping it would like MFX 500's since I have a lot of them, but it don't...shoots MFX and ICS 400's with 240gr down to 150grs field points like darts.
When I kill a deer I'll post some pictures.
