How did the tournament go? Your dates for the bow seem right to me also. The double shelves are a give away; can you shoot left handed?

The tournament was great, almost 500 shooter were there. I didn't shoot my bow.
copy of friends let me shoot there custom Sterrett bow which was fine by me. they
both had longbows one was 45# and the other was 40#, the only think it was cold
and dew was thick in the morning, it warmed up for a great day. For the first shoot
I had a great time, there were 3 courses 15 target 2 arrows each, it was a 2 day shoot.
we shot 2 courses one day and one the second day, multiple targets to shoot.
Lucas, Thanks for asking
