Very nice bow Chris, looks like a shooter to me, mighty fancy grip you are putting on them now days. But we will have to agree to disagree on your statement that they all break someday  if you shoot them, I have not found that to be true, yes of course some do and some may take some set but I have many that has been shot a lot for years that still hold together Just fine.

You keep working at it Pearly boy and you're gonna get to be pretty good at this one day...  :laugh: :P ;D

"Backup bow" he says and then shows off this sort of beauty!  While I'm rockin a Krylon spray painted Zebco 220 from the yard sale last summer as my New rig, he'll show up sporting a G Loomis GLX with a Van Staal VS X-series, ...only to then tell me this is his backup rig.

 :o   :o   :o

Great Job sir...

Make that a Sage rod and now you're right on target, Eric!

Very nice buddy! I love the handle and the full draw is gorgious! That must have been a beauty of a stave!

Thanks fellas, thank you very much.

That stave is just another quality stick from Clint. I have got ALOT of staves from him and only once I got bad one that he would have never seen coming, typical of Clint he replaced it with two.

The top limb did take a fuzz more set, maybe 1/2"? I couldn't stop it with the way the limb is. But, I'm okay with that and it shoots fine and feels even better.
