Default First Custom bow...(pics)

Just picked this up tonight and even though it's late, I wanted to take the new lady around the block to show her off a little...

Sexy profile...
http://discussions.texasbowhunter.co...3&d=1217653391

Ron Foley of Groesbeck, TX may not be the best known on the list of Texas' great bowyers but he's **** sure on the list...



Dirty bamboo lams on the belly...



On the floor at full brace...



Perfectly formed Cocobola riser and matching limb wedges...ain't she just sexy!



Dirty blonde...I mean dirty bamboo backing lams too. I love the nodes and the character of dirty bamboo.



Axis antler tips...



First one to ever say this to me...



I have always bought used custom bows but when I won the raffle at the LSBA Banquet for $150 off on a custom Foley...I was excited to finally have one built with my name on it. Mr Foley will do some truely custom work and individualize your bow any way you want...and she's a shooter too! Fast, smooth, super quiet and did I mention...sexy!

Her vitals are...64" Nock-To-Nock, 52# @ 28".

Thanks to Mr/Mrs Foley for supporting the LSBA and so many other bowhunting organizations, Foley Custom Bows.

Not a chance....but you can shoot it one time if you want.

I promised Marty when he sold it to me that if I ever sold that bow, he'd get the first chance at her...if you haven't noticed, he doesn't know how to "pass" on anything.

On the pics, I tried to "copy & paste" my thread from TBH then edit the images in...but since I couldn't add the pics in edit mode (?), I just left the links. Sorry for the mess...

So, let's try again...
