Default 10 Months.............

Well, I'm waiting again. I just ordered a Blacktail Elite. 10 months is a long time to wait on anything. I guess you can't hurry quality. I decided to order a one piece this time. I never even unstring my take down. It's cocobola and chechin (footed riser) with yew limbs. 62" 50 lb @28" JRW, you've convinced me! Can't wait! Dick
ps. Sorry Chad.

Heck, no reason to apologize--lol. Sounds like a gorgeous bow, and Norm has a great reputation. The wait shows he is busy, which is a good sign. A friend of mine shoots a Blacktail and really likes it--bet you will too!

Dick,

I consider the Blacktail one of the top 3 prettiest recurves available.
Of course, my Trails End Medicine Point is the prettiest of all. :^)
Seriously, the Blacktail is beautiful. I'm sure you will love it.

Dick,

Lord willing, sounds like you might have it in time for hunting season.

You're more patient than I am. Eight more months until WI deer season, and ten months until I get my head mount back. I'm starting to get anxious already.

At least I can start shooting carp in April or May.

Sounds like a beautiful bow, congrats on your purchase. Believe ME, the first few months will be slow, but it will get better. I waited 10 months so far on my OL Adcock and have 2 more to go. I conversed with OL a few days ago and it should be right on time.

Black Gaboon Ebony Riser, Tonkin Cane Limbs, Bright red chakte Kok Overlays.

Well, it looks like my wait will be over in another two months. I talked to OL the other day and it looks like all you guys ordering the the three piece bows has slowed him down a bit. This brings it to 14 months. No hurry though. The guy has some real demand for his bows.
