Cyclic Rivers...Merely rumors, I most certainly hope not.

Perhaps your subtle display of excitement is substantiated by a verified account

Friend, I spoke with the bowyer. I'm just trying to create a buffer in my head just in case there is the inevitable unexpected delays of being a business man and Family Man.

also, Perhaps you saw my materials when you walked through the workshop last week  ;)    ;)
Relax,

You'll live longer!

Manny, you know how to fix that problem....

Sometimes the anticipation is the best part but I think in this case, I am wrong.
Relax,

Wife just ordered me a real Manchu static recurve.  Pics when it gets in.  Ordered me half a dozen leopardwood shafts for it too.

Wow! By chance is it by James Parker @ Huntworthy Productions? I was thinking of giving those leopardwood shafts a shot (the grain structure is sick!) but something doesn't seem right if I shot those off of a modern ILF rig...

No, mine is a fiberglass reproduction from a traditional bowyer in China.  Made sense to get it from where they're from originally.  My next Manchu I'm gonna build myself.

The shafts are 36" Manchu taper, drilled for tanged heads and 23/64ths diameter.  Got them from Forrester, he knows the tapers for all of the Asian styles.  Arrowheads are from Flagella Dei, hand forged.  They're my next skill to learn.

My Zipper Nitro came in the mail yesterday and it is everything I was hoping for.
I bought a riser Bill had in stock and was on the list for him to build me a set of 58" limbs but in one of my many phone calls to Bill I found out he had a set of 60" 51# @28 carbon and foam limbs in stock which was perfect for me and I couldn't take it any longer so I grabbed them.
I also want to add all the good things you read about dealing with Bill are true he is a real pleasure to do business with.

Shot indoors with Scott Wednesday.  His new TG is not only a beautiful bow, but he shot it very well. Watch out turkeys!!!

I ordered a Black & White Ebony PLX longbow from Black Widow with their new African Black wood spliced limb veneers. Now the wait...
