Congrats!!!  I have a used Chief Elite coming in the mail!  I have been wanting to try one of these bows, and am finally getting my chance!!!

If they are nice as I have heard, you and I are going to have big smiles on our faces for a long time.

Well let me tell ya you just purchased one of the finest shooting longbows out there. I have two Chiefs and they are exceptional in every way. Did you get his figured myrtle veneers?? They are AWESOME!

Congrats on the new bow....you could spend alot more and not have anywhere near as nice of a bow as you are getting. Oh yeah and they fling an arra pretty quick too!

My bow is yew and cocobolo. I love that combination and the butterscotch color of the yew is awesome. I will order my next bow with the same combination of woods.

Ron,
 Congrats on your new Liberty, I have two of his earlier bows and they are excellent shooting and looking bows.  
  I really enjoy the Griffin I got from you, thanks again for an excellent transaction.  Hope your shoulder is back on track.
  Will have a chance to chase javis with the Griffin next weekend in South Texas.
  Best of luck to ya.............McK

Ron, I don't have any right now. This isn't my bow but it could pass as a twin except for the myrtle accents on the riser.
