I have a set of the new #3 limbs coming from another member. This morning I ordered a B riser. I'm really hyped to get this all together, I even twisted up a string last night    :bigsmyl:

I have a feeling this is going to be a fun ride.

I went with the diamondwood. Only As in stock in bubinga.

Where were the Bubinga Bears in stock at?

Bishop

3Rivers showed the A riser in stock in bubinga this morning.

You are going to love it. Both the A and the B are great risers. I have a hunch that the "red stripe" risers are going to be as "classic" as the green stripe ones have proven to be.

Can't wait to see the photos when you post them.

I'll post pics. My riser shipped yesterday and limbs went out Tuesday. I hope its all here by tomorrow.

My condolences!

Before long, you'll be afflicted in the worst way.  The next thing you know, you'll be scanning the classifieds and the big auction site and trolling the vendor tents looking for Type I and IIs, Supremes, and Signatures.  It's bad, let me tell you!

I just took the plunge also, only the mag route. I have a b riser coming. Now I need to find some limbs. I'm jazzed.

Hey guys i just jumped head first into it also got a 2008 TD A-Riser made a good trade for a Browning Sweet Sixteen A-5 late fifty's early sixty's era, just can't seem to get interested in firearms anymore, still have a Light Twelve getting ready to sell to get a new Bubinga or Diamond Wood

It is a fun sickness. I caught it the middle of last year and haven't quite cured it yet. I now have an A&B mag. Two late eighties B wood takedowns and I hope the final cure is on the way. A type1 B, with some Fred history to it. I plan on this being a hunting bow. The sickness also has brought 8 sets of limbs into my life. I didn't plan on any of this, so be careful. Traded and sold a lot of bows to make this happen.

Good Luck! Before you know it you will have a wall full of bows that are worth more than your 4x4...

same here I got my A and B mag risers, two sets of limbs 1 and 3, lows 40's. I'm all set for a while, I hope.
Now looking for arrows, stu's calculator rocks! Easton ion 1816 will fly 209fps... Now to procure some!

I've been trying to keep mine contained:



Putting the finishing touches on and filling a 2nd prototype (larger, of red oak, ebonized, solid brass hardware w/ corner protectors, dividers which didn't work out).

Next and hopefully final will have shorter arrow holder w/ concealed magnets, different handle on the centerline of the case, a mechanism to hold a plastic organizer in place.

Still not happy w/ the central compartment --- anyone know of a source for affordable closed cell foam? Or any other suggestions for improvements?

Redtail2

William, nice case. What year is your bow?

William F. Adams

Thanks! As I noted, still working on an improved version.

The bow is from 1982 or so, maybe 1984.

Armand

wow i have had mine now for a little over a week and i can hit what i want with it, why i have wasted so much money on other bows and not had one years before this, I'll have a Bubinga and Dymondwood soon
