Much anticipated Blacktail arrives!

nice looking bow.  The blacktail bows are top performers

Thanks for all the kind remarks. Thus far it has surpassed all my expectations.

Tony, I would love to try to but not sure how that will work out this coming season. Since my equilibrium went south my opportunity at hunting has been greatly affected. I will just have to wait and see how things work out.

Those Blacktails are works of Art and some of the best shooting Bows! Congratulation

[CBergeman]

Another beauty!

WOW Louis!!!! That is beautiful!!!! You have some of the purtiest bows I have ever seen!!

[batbow]

Beautiful! Love that wood!
And I know how beautifully there made, I have owned one.

Thanks Danny. Like the Widow I have been wanting this one for a long time and finally pulled the trigger on it.

I almost made the mistake of substituting a different bow in it's place, and though I didn't realize it at the time thankfully that didn't work out and I finally ordered and received the bow I really wanted.

Straitshot, please consider adding your pics to the Blacktail Gallery thread.  I need to do the same for my two:

Gorgeous!  Love that grain on the grip especially!  Some BW ebony doesn't have enough back in the grain.  Yours is perfect!  But, I'm  not surprised with Blacktail.

Bowwild, You are correct. With some B&W Ebony it is determined by the luck of the draw. To me the best is when you have at least a 50:50 percent ratio. I also like the white to have the dark blond appearance. I think Blacktail did an excellent job.
