I agree with Jack. An owner of a mint unshot bow should not be pressured to shoot it just to shoot it. It's his bow to do with what he wants.

Richard...I don't think anyone is "pressuring" him to shoot it, just stating what they would do if it were theirs.  I'm just stating what I would do if it were mine.

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

Well, I could not resist. So I shot the bow. I was very impressed with it! It seemed very fast for only a #40 bow. The grip perfectly fits my hand aswell. I was VERY careful with it though!

Thanks for all the help.

Alex if you get a chance(not sure of your draw length)give some 5-6 or maybe a number 7 micro flite arrows a try.I was shooting my 1964 Kodiak 40# with micro #7 28" BOH with 75 grain nib for a tip.Over 170 plus feet per second...now thats smoken fast for a bow that is 40 something years old by any standards.If well tuned and the correct arrow weight the 64 Kodiak is a nail driven machine.I've owned a lot of different 1964 Kodiaks over the years and I never had one that I did'nt like bd

Thats great, I have a whole bunch of Micro flite 6's and maybe a few 7's. I'll have to fletch them up and see how they do.
thanks
