Izzy: Shoots better than I do.  :D  

Straitera: It is a Bruin Classic 50# 58" AMO I talked to the guy at Bruin and he says it has bamboo limbs (core and all) I don't remember what the riser is. Groups at 15 yards were touching just before deer season.

Frank bullitt: Come on you're from In. It's not much warmer there. Heck it was 30 degrees when I took that picture. Where we are from that's a heat wave this time of year.  :D  

For the record I have shot three squirells with it in the back yard. Well actually I was in the house, shooting through the kitchen out the back door, through the mud room, nothing but squirell. Good thing the wife loves me.  :bigsmyl:  And she likes squirell pie.

Wow nice bow for a garage sale.  Looks great.  I think I would like to shoot that my self.  Nice looking grip and my spec's for a short bow.  

I remember my first real grown up stick bow, and I still have it along with the second one hanging up on the wall.
