A new bow for my first bear hunt ( All Done )

Going bear hunting with Jerry Russell in exactly 1 month. So I figured I needed a new bow! Why not?! Some Beautiful cocobolo and gaboon from Big Jim! Going to do this one on KennyM's form. Changing the riser a little bit to fit my personal liking. Also going to make it a 2 piece take down.

WOW!!!!!
That is stunning
Show us some more pics
That is certainly some of the prettiest wood I have ever seen
Simply beautiful riser!
Good luck on your bear hunt

Now you've done it! You let Wayne see the fancy wood!

The wood in the lams looks like an impressionist painting. Very nice! I can't wait to see the bow.

I guess it's ok....

Think I'll nickname it the Monarch. Reminds me of a monarch butterfly. The floor is now open for everyone's jokes except Roy!

Roy from Pa · August 19, 2015, 09:58:00 AM

Ah, Monarch.. How sweet and dainty..

LMAO

That's gonna look sweet!

Crittergetter · August 19, 2015, 06:09:00 PM

Roy, I knew you couldnt resist! Defiantly going to be sweet, we'll have to see about dainty when I put one right through the ole boiler room on a big ole boar!

Best of luck on your Bear hunt, I have no doubt your bow can get the job done. Keep us updated on e progress.
By the way, this won't be your last Bear hunt, they are very addicting.

Wow that's going to be a beauty!!

BrushWolf · August 23, 2015, 10:58:00 PM

That riser looks like it's on fire. Nice!

Buemaker · August 24, 2015, 07:41:00 AM

I guess it's okay also.

Bue--.

Roy from Pa · August 24, 2015, 07:55:00 AM

Yup Bue, it's just ok...

Crittergetter · September 11, 2015, 10:11:00 AM

Bows done! Finished it up the other day. 58" and 51#@28".

Crittergetter · September 11, 2015, 10:14:00 AM

My second group from around 18 yrds.

Roy from Pa · September 11, 2015, 11:45:00 AM

Not a bad group for 5 yards...

Sant-Ravenhill · September 11, 2015, 12:26:00 PM

VERY NICE!

Crittergetter · September 11, 2015, 12:59:00 PM

Now Roy, that ain't funny! I missed a hog about 30lbs at 7 yrds one time. Still mad at myself!

beachbowhunter · September 11, 2015, 02:28:00 PM

That bow rocks! Roy needs to be getting building tips from you from now on :D

takefive · September 11, 2015, 06:02:00 PM

That is a beauty!
Roy is just jealous as usual. :D
