Another MOAB arrived today
« on: May 29, 2012, 02:05:00 PM »
Well after trading into a MOAB a few weeks back the second one arrived today. A forum member had offered up one for sale to me and it was borderline on the weight I was looking for at 55#. He also had no pics. Well being true to Tradgang member form he offered to send it to me to play with to see if I liked it before I bought it. Well it showed up today and was even better that I expected. I grabbed the arrows from the 50# MOAB and stepped out on the porch. These were the first 6 arrows at 18 yards and I think this one might be a keeper as well. Justin, I'll have some money headed your way tomorrow!!! (grin)

MOABs have been known to bring a smile to more than a few people.

Congrats on the bow.  She's a looker too.

Another thing I find impressive are the skinny strings. The 50#er has one while the 55# is stock. Shooting them both side by side I almost can't tell a difference between them. I can't wait to get a skinny string on this 55#er and see how she does then!!!

Thanks guys I like the bow alot. That target is OLD. It was one my father-in-law had laying around and was going to throw out....I salvaged it and put it back in action. I had been shooting at a block type target and a homemade bag target hanging from a frame. Threw the ram target right in front of the hanging block and was back in business. (grin)

In all fairness I shot the bow alot last night (after I got the grass mowed...ugh) and not all my groups were spectacular but overall I shot it very well. I think I can get away with running the same arrows in both the 50 and 55#er. I did notice with the slightly weak arrows they would go a little bit right when my release was sloppy.

I've been working on my back tension and my release the past few weeks and am seeing a marked improvement in my shooting.

My MOAB has become my go-to bow.  Gotta love 'em.  :archer2:
