That's not a repair...that's a re-build! Nice looking work there James. Love to hear just what all you're replacing here.

I'm proud to say that's my bow! That bow and I have a lot of history, and it was definitely worth the save. I appreciate James doing what he's done. Can't wait to get it in my hands again.

Did you build the form specially for that Hunter, or have you built Hunter clones? Looks great!

Got my bow back from JamesV. It looks great and shoots like a dream. I'm tickled to death to have it back and usable. I'll post pics later. The guy knows what he's doing!
