Title: BIG JIM YUKON
Post by: Pat Ct on January 18, 2019, 12:40:17 PM
Just saw a video on his facebook page... looks like a new take on a Hill style longbow! Can you tell us more Jim?  :goldtooth:

Well, it is what it is! 66" - 69" and clear glass over veneers. It is available with any woods... If I don't have it, I will get it. Another major advantage is that it is available with the carbon/fiberglass take down system, fast flight compatible and horn overlays.
The bow is a collaboration between myself and James Parker. James is a new team member here at BigJims and has a vast amount of experience in traditional and primitive archery.
$625 plus options.
Thanks, BigJim

Sounds like a winner.  Just another great option from a fabulous line of bows and incredible company comprised of top notch folks.  :clapper:

Jim,
Are the limbs straight, setback or string follow?

Way cool. Saw the FB post and looks like it will be a great addition to an already fantastic line up.

How about a 64" for us short guys ?! ;)

The limbs are set back and even though the standard offering is for 66, 68 and 69 tip to tip, if we have enough interest, we can do as short as 64 and as long as 70".
