Ok. Stopped by home for lunch (the concrete block business is slow this time of year), and uploaded some photos.
Here you go!

As an old wise gentleman once told me ..... You COULD kill an animal with an ugly bow, but why would you want to do that!

NOW, Bob, You personally KNOW what all the fuss was about...Among us last summer :D
As I read your review, I had to chuckle... about blowing arrows THRU your old 3D.
I had to go up in spine to tame my XX carbon limbs on the longbow version...Amazing workmanship!
I even loaded mine up w/ more front weight... and while that isn't Kirk's cup of Jo, they really don't drop much at all out to my effective limit of 25-30. Beyond that... I'd not have a clue since it's not MY cup to shoot that far!

Moving out to 25 - 28 yards, I mentally adjusted for any drop due to the extended distance, to only have the arrows hit 4-6 high - in other words, minimal noticeable drop at this distance!
Now I knew why Kirk had added the inscription "Shoot Low, Brother!" on the riser! This bow can shoot (Kirk was getting 199 fps with a 10 gpi set-up). WOW!
Thanks for the great review Bob. I appreciate it. But i need to clarify that 199 i got out of her wasn't a real accurate test. My grain scale crapped out on me and i was guessing on arrow weight by using one of my hunting shafts that are supposed to be 568 grains with a lighter tip. so that wasn't 10 GPP
These things do like heavy arrows though. The "Shoot Low Brutha" part cracked me up. I just got a little feed back from Keith Langford on his new SS and he said the same thing. "Perfect left to right arrow placement, but it shoots high bro."
Once you get used to a flat shooting trajectory it will spoil you. It definitely helps on yardage accuracy.....
Glad you like her bro.... Kirk

Shot the SS around 30 times this PM and even shot it along side my Centaur (my go-to bow). Hate to admit it, but the SS is faster, and even though it is a static tip recurve, IMO it is just as quiet as my Centaur shooting the same arrow set-up.
It pains me, but sorry Jim!
Love them both!! Two great bowyers!

That is a nice compliment Bob. Jim Neeves builds a beautiful high performance bow.
Glad you are liking the new Sasquatch SS... time to go shoot some piggies with her now.

Bob, glad your liking the SS. I am loving mine, It is outshooting my Ultimate, and that is saying something. Hate hitting a dime every shot, so far out to 30 yards, this thing is on the money. I posted a short review over on product reviews for everyone to check out, sorry I cant get the pics to post, maybe Kirk can add the ones he took.
