I have an original L/H Jim Brackenbury Shadow, one of the last ones made before he died. It is 61#@27" and I have been drawing it to 28.5" for 65# with no issue. It will come with 1/2doz. gold tip trads with 100gr brass inserts, aluminum footings, nock collars, 1/2doz 100gr adaptors, 1doz. 145gr ribteks- new and unsharpened, spare string, silencers and limb buffers on both strings and a brand new hard case with molded foam. Bow is in great condition and shoots awesome. Arrow weight is right at 700 grains. I bought it for my upcoming Africa trip but just had to replace our only vehicle after several costly repairs. Down payment and new reg. is coming directly out of trip saving which may force me to not bring any trophies home if I don't do something. So decision was made to sell this. I will have the use of the outfitters rifle and even though I would love to get an animal with my bow, I'd rather be able to bring what I get back. Hoping someone can help.

Paid well over $800 for all, need to get $600
 
It is a beautiful bow Albert.
 
Yes it is Charlie, thanks. Shoots great, and basically irreplaceable now- made by one of the old great bowyers. I was very excited to use it in Africa, but I would rather be able to bring stuff back, so I'm hoping to pass it on to someone else who will appreciate it. Damn vehicles always getting in the way of saving money and having fun! Going to have to tighten the purse strings till I get back now and hope this sells. Either way I will still be going- it's just a matter of if it's just pics or trophys for home too
 
It's a beauty for sure!

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
