Took a matched set of 2315 @29 3/4” and shot two 4” groups with 6 arrows at 15 yards with the core of the groups having arrows touching.  This bow is rapidly becoming familiar again.  Welcome home “Hallelujah”!

Glad it worked out for you.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

I am really pleased with performance of this D/R bow.  Amazing design and construction.  Very good physical weight in the handle and bamboo cores.

Continue to improve with this bow repeated 6 arrow groupings of 4-5” at 15-18 yards, with some focus and practice these will shrink I'm sure.  Will move to 3-D targets for practice on animal contours, will soon have heavy woods to try out, life is good!!!
