“This bow far exceeded all expectations. Hands down, the smoothest bow I’ve ever shot. As accurate as it is SAVAGE!” – Jack Carr

You will find this bow in the hands of James Reece and Jack Carr. Thank you to my dear friend John Dudley of Nock On Archery for this incredible bow build. The base bow is a PSE NTN 33 built and customized by the master archer himself. He named it SAVAGE. Quite fitting…

SEAL Delivery Vehicle (SDV)

For some reason a paragraph about the SDV was redacted by the government from the pages of Savage Son.  If you are curious about what was redacted please see the unclassified Government Accountability Office report to the United States Senate titled Force Structure: Options for Enhancing the Navy’s Attack Submarine Force, multiple U.S. Navy recruiting commercials, the Navy sponsored movie Act of Valor starring active duty Navy SEALs, or visit the UDT/SEAL Museum in Ft. Pierce, Florida where an actual SDV is on display.
