Turtle, I built one and it would have been a fantastic shooter I assume. It blew up due to starving the glue joint in the fade area. I would build it just like a boo backed osage. and be careful not to starve the glue joint LOL

You always think it won’t happen to you, well it can it will. Such is life, it ain't fair and shows no indifference. Enjoy it anyway

I agree footfoot he does amazing work! This bow was built in 2004 and shoots like a dream like all of Johns bows! I about crapped my pants when he picked it out of his pile of bows and handed it to me and told me it was mine after I told him how beautiful it was. :o

Ha! Elktracker. I'll remember to bring a change of underwear if I ever meet him and visit his shop.
