Welcome back trust the exercise was fun8). Don’t know anything about those recurves but if you can call or e-mail the Bear Archery folks they were very helpful in identifying my 70 K mag.

But aren’t you ready to try a custom R/D long bow:D

I hear that. Been doing yard and house maintence for a couple of weeks—possible business buyers visting next week end.

Sorry can’t add to the trad transport as I walk less then 1/4 mile to my hunting area and when I take a deer I pack it out.

One of the nice things about our location is I don’t have to drive to hunt or stump.

That was one awesome video. Your enthusiasm as always is infectiousness. Well done.

I have to ask do you use the hound for coursing the deer:D.

Give Ron a call he will walk you through the process. Gave me a 30min class at ETAR–it’s pretty easy once you get the hang of it.

Forgot to mention that was a great video –thanks mom.

Beats the heck out of some of the stuff I packed for 3 decades.:shock:

x2 What Steve said. On Dave and I’s recent trip we were appalled at the condition of campsites and the refuse left behind.

All my bows are used. 1970 Kodiak mag willed to me by a Marine friend. 2 shrew classic hunters from Dave P all have seen almost daily shooting and not only works of art but are a pleasure to shoot.:D

Believe if your buying a quality bow from reputable folks you can’t go wrong. Just do the research before you buy.

Now I just have to convince the banker of the family that I really do require a “new bow”.:lol: Or as I say “trying to keep up with the Smithammers”.

Great end quote–he will be missed.

Jay I too would be interested in the independent research done on multiblade heads.

Read the Ashby library above. Then look at the discussion on that forum—then decide. 🙂

Great video and lot’s of good links on the sidebar.

When wojo14 was here shooting on Sun. I noticed right off that he didn’t retrieve my arrows with appropriate respect 😆 oh well he is young with proper training I’ll get him in the Zen spirit.

We need to start doing those kind of “studies” they are getting paid for reporting the blindingly obvious.

Speaking of muscle trucks–read somewhere recently that you can upgrade your truck horn so when you push it out comes–you ready for this—elk bugling.:twisted: Yes sir the latest in back country skills.

I already told you what a great op-ed it is, but if it kicks ole Dave in the butt to get back in the fight, we all will owe you a drink at the next campfire gathering.

Well done to you both.

Dave, like your new quote–would add “and it’s leaking”.
