2012 Swap Bow from Matt "MWirwicki"
« on: January 02, 2013, 07:51:21 pm »
This is the bow that Matt "MWirwicki" stepped in and built when the man that drew my name for the swap couldn’t get it done. I am fairly new to PA and am quite overwhelmed by the generosity of its members. I was privileged to be a part of the swap this year and that by itself would have been enough but to receive a bow of this quality!!! I have to apologize to Matt for taking so long to post but I have not been able to shoot for a bit due to my back but now……  Matt this little bow spits an arrow hard (likes 50/55 cedar) and is going to make meat if I have anything to say about it!!!

Matt thank you so much....  this bow will be a part of my rack always and hopfully will make lots of meat :)

Knowing who was going to build a bow for me I took the liberty of doing a bit of FBI work to find out more about my builder "Matt"...

Here is a slideshow with some of matts builds....  the man can build a bow!!!

Bent, Hawkman, Onebow for me one of the best parts of getting a bow of this quality is it gives me a feel for what's right. I need all the help I can get and this bow and Matts skills will help me do better work for sure :)

Man I can't wait to stick a pig whit this one!!!!
