Title: Bow Stick archery.
Post by: rm85 on February 15, 2010, 01:11:00 PM
Hay I was just wondering if the U-Finish long at Bow stick archery is any good.

And what work needs to be done to complete it.


Thanks

Justin does not own bowstick archery any more.I have seen many threads where bowstick wont answer phones or take orders.And it has made many people angry at Justin.The new owner still uses Justins face and how to videos.Justin sold Bowstick when he left to serve in Iraq but he is back now and has opened a new archery site if your looking to get a U finish bow .His new site is  Gibow.com
I hope this helps you .Good Luck.  :clapper:

I have had good luck with cores and backing from rudderbows.  May take a bit if they don't have it ready to ship but they stand behind their products.  I had a backing strip broken in shipping and the sent me new one immediately.

Check out Huntworthy products( a TG sponsor). James Parker has some of David Knight's ipe boo glue-up at a very reasonable price. The way David builds them they take very little tillering to complete. I know quite a few folks that have completed David's glue-up and all have been very pleased.

I'll second that Rudderbows is reliable and stand behind their product.
