Dan knocks it out of park, gorgeous WhipHS, Pic Heavy!!
« on: May 25, 2013, 11:16:00 AM »
I got the call at the beginning of the week that Dan would be shipping my new Whip and it should be here for the weekend.  We had a traditional shoot scheduled for the entire weekend, but due to storms being forecasted for the entire weekend and some graduations taking priority, we wouldn't be able to camp.  But Friday was gorgeous and just like Dan promised, Friday afternoon a nice long tube was delivered to me at work so I didn't have to chase down the postman for a signature   :thumbsup:

So sit back, relax, and get ready for some photos of some of the finest cocobolo, bocote, and beavertail you have ever laid your eyes on!  I threw on my SBD string off another 60" bow and this thing is dead quiet.  She is 60", 48#@28".  Enjoy.

First, some inside photos from the office!!! Couldn't wait to get home   :dunno:
             

Now, some Outdoor Photos.....

           

I am still waiting to get some serious shooting done with her, but at 7 yards in the basement I was rattling shafts pretty regularly.  And this thing shoots with Authority.  My arrows are right at 530 grains and they are hitting HARD in the puff bag.  Hope you all enjoy Dan's handiwork!  Like it has been said many times, he is certainly a master at his trade.  Excellent quality and customer service.

Really, really beautiful bow! You weren't kidding, a home run.  I like the way the grip was sewn up too; a nice detail.  Enjoy it, and thanks for sharing!

Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.

Not too shabby at all. I too especially like the grip and sew job.
Also those overlays look great.
God bless and enjoy. Steve
