So I was talkin to Kirk awhile back, and I says listen, I've got a 27" draw, a bad shoulder, 45-46lbs is max for me to really enjoy a bow, and I like a really fast ,smooth stable bow, do you make anything that can fit that bill?

well, needless to say, not only does he make a pretty darn nice bow, he's quite the salesman also

so he says he's confident that he can meet those requirements, we talk about limb options, and I say give me the fastest limbs you make. then he sends me some pics of various risers, one in particular stood out to me and I tell him I like the looks of that one, how much is it? he says sorry that's my personal bow, but I've still got the sister to it in block form, so I opt for it. here's a couple pics of it all finished up. wenge with bubinga flair

:bigsmyl:   Looking forward to more pics. Must be hard for Kirk to build stock bows when all that time goes into the custom fit and grip.   :thumbsup:

:campfire:     :coffee:  So how is it shooting.....?

one of the things that really make or break a bow for most of us is the grip, well when I heard Kirk was going to be at denton, figured it would be worth the trip to check out some of his grips first hand, found two that I liked but both needed a little work to be just right for me, Kirk took some notes, and the grip is great! here's a pic of the limb butts and tips
 
 
 

in just a little bit I'll give ya my thoughts on my overall impressions of the bow.

Looks like a satin finish? Skins over carbon? Nice touch, that carbon can be U-G-L-Y, at any speed.
