HH BUG GOT ME - Part Two!

[Green]

Best of luck with the shoulder therapy.....hope you're back to full use soon!

[WESTBROOK]

Beautiful bow Tony!

Hoping your wing heals up so you can enjoy it.

[WESTBROOK]

I'm with Brian on the elm limbs, I'll take them over boo.

Thanks Eric,
Hope to see you at GLLI next time!

[Ray Lyon]

Woohoo, tracking rumor has it that the Berry Northstar made it to Traverse City. I hope they put in on the delivery truck and not on the truck back to Cincinnati.    

I hope that you get it in time to shoot this weekend and it is still in good shape after being thrown around by those reckless Iowegian mail sorters.

[Ray Lyon]

Well, Craig packaged the Northstar like a tank could run over it. I'm looking forward to running it through the paces on Saturday (just a little time for some quick shots tonight-party to attend with the Mrs.)  The bow is better looking in person and these are just cell phone pics so not the clearest (doesn't do justice to the limbs at all).  The grip feels great and of course the workmanship is typical Berry quality.  I'm really looking forward to seeing how the 62" version of a reverse handle string follow handles.

Glad the drama of "As the Bow Travels" has come to a conclusion!  Purty, Purty!

[WESTBROOK]

Beauty Ray!

Now...put on your snowshoes and head for Krogels    

[Ray Lyon]

Eric,

Hey, once the snow is gone, my daughters and I are going to help my hunting buddy Greg get the course set in place. Dan Krogel is over 80 and had both hips replaced, but he's getting around ok. I'm looking forward to getting out there and shooting and with this weather, the snow is leaving in a hurry. I'll let you know when that happens and perhaps we can finally meet there.

Sounds like a good time...never made it up there last year. Or any where for that matter.

Lovin' this weather...that relentless cold was getting to me...makes my work a real pain!

[Ray Lyon]

OK, so she draws buttery smooth in the office. One question for Northstar shooters-what brace height are you shooting at? I didn't see it on the Berry website and I don't want to bother James and take him away from you guys waiting on his build list.

A nice one Ray!
...finally!

[Green]

Ray, my Morningstar is straight limbed, but I don't think that matters much....6.5" is where I start my tune.

[Ray Lyon]

Thanks Rob. Just wanted to speed setup things up a little.    

[bisket]

Alright, that looks worth the wait..let us now when you get her tuned up.
Craig is a good guy to deal with and yes, he packs em up real good.  I have been on the receiving end of his nice bows.  He is a good guy to deal with.

Ray
Gorgeous bow!!!!
I start all my Berries around 6.5"
My 62" Northstar liked 6.75" the best

[Ray Lyon]

Hmmmm, might just have to find someone close to Craig and have him evaluated for sanity. Not sure why he let this baby go.

took a minute at first light this morning to put a few arrows through the JD Berry Northstar.  Craig must have similar style as the brace on the string he included came out at 6.75 and his nock point is the same as my other bows. This has a skinny string and so I dug around for some arrows with nocks that would lightly snap. Some vintage Microflite #8's fit perfectly and the bow seems to really like them.  Very well behaved, smooth as silk and feather light. The bow at 45#'s spits these heavy Microflites out very efficiently. The snow bank only allowed me to get back to 18 yards, but the seemed to fly pretty flat out to that range.  Only enough time for a half dozen shots, so I'll look forward to really dialing in tomorrow.    

Nice!

Bet it was worth the wait Ray.
