I ordered before and I know it's part of the questions asked.
    I was just curious about the size, mostly depth of grip, so I can play around with a piece of wood to see what I like....

Mike, that is a great idea, and when you get it to where you like it, send it to Craig (or whoever is making your bow) and let them duplicate it.
The years accumulate on old friendships like tree rings, during which time a kind of unspoken care and loyalty accrue between men.

I just ordered the leather bow case from Hill Archery, don't tell my wife.  You think she will notice?

I have been thinking about doing the same thing that Mike proposed. It would be tough to give a bowyer a better start than a grip that fits perfectly.

The green dense foam for fake flowers is great to practice building your grip out of.
Not special tools, it's quick and well just easy., it does not give when you hold it so you can actually GRIP it to get a good feel of how it sits in your hand

I would definitely specify what you are looking for in a grip.  Standard is not an option, because each one you order as standard will likely be different...don't ask me how I know!?!

If our turkeys haven't all frozen to death, I will be chasing them starting late April.

Turkey hunting is a passion of mine. I been practicing and tuning my calls for a month now. Our season starts March 15th. I will be scouting the next two weeks and try to roost some birds.

My turkey season is up in the air. Possible back surgery and certain knee surgery (just don't know the dates on the knees yet)

If I miss it I sure will miss it.   ;)

"The Lord willing" I'll be giving them my best shot with the "Amazon Queen", a JD Berry "Northstar".

Charlie you have my prayers for a quick and complete recovery.

Good luck with the surgeries Charlie.  I hope they give you relief and help you to have many, many more years of an enjoyable hunting life.

I feel for you Charlie.  Being partially disabled myself, I fight with my back 24/7.  Thanks to my teeter table, a good chiropractor and nutrition I am still going, but turkey's can spot those aluminum crutches from a mile away.  Times like that it is nice to have someone along that can set up the Huntmor.

Charlie,
I hope all goes well with your surgery, and that you are terrorizing gobblers in a month or two.
