What do you know! It worked!!
« on: October 10, 2008, 07:31:00 PM »
My quest to kill a deer with one of my old Bears came true this morning. I was able to take a nice fat 5 point from the ground at 8 yards with my 55 lb 1969 Super K. I flat pasted him and my quest is finally fulfilled. Only goes to prove what was told to me by a bowyer. "Nobody reinvented the wheel" and "The bows that came out of Grayling were top notch". This bow was built in my birth year and I think I fulfilled its destiny. Hopefully more to come.

I sent Cam and Rich pictures, so if one of you knows how to post them I would be grateful.
No hunter should feel guilty for killing a deer that doesnt meet someone else's expectations.

Good job

That's what these old Bers were meant for...not just hanging on a wall.

The most important part of your hunting setup is the broadhead.  The rest is just the delivery system.
