I received this bow in trade today. It was from and made by our own Jim Curlee (I hope I'm not embarrassing him). I am blown away at the quality and the fine workmanship. This thing was really made with love. It shoots great, too. It's by far the nicest bow I've ever owned.
I took a few photos this afternoon to show off Jim's great handiwork:

Boy, those are beautiful! fwiw: I recently received a dozen tapered cedars in trade, that were originally bought from Jim. When I spined and weighed them, I was amused to find that, not only did they all spine EXACTLY THE SAME, but they were all WITHIN 2 GRAINS of one another! Perfectly straight with great grain. Just attests to this guy's attention to quality and detail!

I've been shooting a couple of Jim's bows for years. I'd put them up against any of the "big name" bows for quality and performance. He's also a pretty fair, carpenter, cabinet maker and cabin builder. Now he's starting to mess around with building bamboo fly rods so watch out. Too bad he's such a grumpy old dude!@!@
