My JD Berry Argos has arrived
« on: May 02, 2014, 05:22:00 PM »
Oh what a beautiful day. 63 degrees, light breeze, sunshine and a new JD Berry bow. Does it get any better? Didn't want to stop shooting to post but had to share. Bavarian rosewood handle,bamboo cores and a light yew on the belly and a darker knotty yew on the back and tip overlays made from warthog tusk. Beautiful bow! Will work on posting pictures tonight.

Thanks for the compliments men. Not surprising-its a shooter.
Looks like I'm still missing a step on uploading pics   :rolleyes:  I'll figure it out one of these days.
Hats off to Mr. Berry.

Just copy and paste the IMG link and it will work


I love my berry bows and yours is absolutly stunning.  I have the 27 year old version of your argos and it is a wonderfull combination of classic longbow with the increased performance of a slight r/d. Just plain amazing bows that loose none of the qualities of the american semi longbow and yet benefit from the duo-flex design with less feedback and more performance

Very nice! enjoy shooting! Just had Oregon arrows made up for my Taipan and Brians north star, they fly beautifully. I love that grip on your Argos, that is the one i have on my Taipan. I must say the grip difference between the two is amazing and yet both are naturally comfortable. Much luck to you and your new bow!
