          Nice shooting little bow. Although….I believe it’s more the shooter than the bow:wink:

            George — How do you shoot so well with all those different bows? Do you warm up and get used to a particular bow before making these videos? I can’t shoot that well with just one bow. You have a gift.

              Pure beauty. No reason this video couldn’t be posted on that Aesthetics thread. Very nice, dwc

                David….There are bows I can’t shoot worth a hoot, and some are just like an old friend. It usually takes me a day or so of playing around with a certain bow to get the feel, and how it reacts on the shot. Each one is different, but I’ve been doing this a long time my friend. I shoot better also if I’m not struggling with too much draw weight. But this bow was Bucks….so it will shoot well for me. 😉

                  I agree with Steertalker on this one. Ol George has skills!

                    Same bow, shooting at a pignut from the hickory tree.

                            A good shot would have hit that pignut the first try. 😳

                            I’m not exagerating when I tell you I shoot the bow, at least a few shots, every single week of the year, and usually two or three days each week. I normally take it along on vacation as well, if only to pull it back a time or two.

                            Another thing to consider: Folks will say shooting light bows will make you weaker and you will have trouble with heavier ones. That’s BS. Actually, I shoot my lighter bows all summer, 90 percent of the time. I find that when I pick up the 55 pounder, it is relatively easy to hold and come to anchor with. Form is form, and it is much better inlaid by shooting a lighter bow now and then so you aren’t fighting it…..you can’t build form by fighting the draw forces.
