Just got my new bow from Rose oak this morning.  First impression: Flawless workmanship, beautiful beyond saying, paduak and zebrawood w/ zebrawood limbs.  I strung it up and drew it back, smooth!  Surely didnt feel to me like 69#, thats for sure.  Took it home and took my first test shot.  Shooting 6075 term hunter selects, 630 grains.  First shot hit right where I was aiming, and I actually said "whoa" out loud.  Fast, not sure how fast, but definatly faster than anything else I have owned (bracks, martins, bears, wapitis, habu, etc).  Also Very quiet, hardly a whisper as I dropped the string.  I really felt at home shooting this bow from the very first shot, something I am not used to experiencing.  Those of you who have not checked out Brandons bows, you owe it to yourself to take a look.  They shoot as good as they look.  Here are a few pics for yall.

Ok I fixed your brackets so we could see this beauty but now you need to downsize it.

Absolutely Beautiful. Congratulations

I fixed you brackets and took out your retrys. You need to make them smaller though. Set them to the forum size in the editor on Photobucket

boy, I really suck at posting pics, sorry guys.....

One more try..

That is the most amazing work of art I have ever seen.

Unbelievably beautiful!  I sure wish Brandon also made longbows.

WOW.....very nice!!!

You aren't actually going to take that in the woods, are you? Isn't there some kind of law against willful destruction of art? Man, I'd be scared of hurting that beautiful baby.

That is my only hangup on this one.  I might have to have Brandon make me another one in the future that is not quite so pretty, so I dont have to worry about scratching or banging it up. LOL!  Until then, I will just have to be careful.

use some spandex limb skins on that beauty Mitch.you can pull em down the fades to protect some of the riser as well.

That is not a bad idea Steelhead, I am already pretty protective of this one, its sitting in my truck right now, unstrung and in its bowsock, something I have never done before with any other bow.  I am gonna try to be a little more careful with this one.
