Not bad for a 60 yr. old..............
« on: March 02, 2013, 03:02:00 PM »
Not bad for a 60 yr. old.... bow that is. As much as I love my Hill styles, the old classic recurves have a serious hold on me.. maybe this is why. This was the 2nd 4 arrow group i shot at 15 yrds. cold off the rack with this 53' Bear Cub, 62 " 59 @ 28. I was shooting for the white sticker, so im off a bit but nothing a few more rounds wont fix.
Just goes to show, dont underestimate the oldies, cause they still got what it takes to get it done!  [/url] [/IMG]

I have to give most of the credit to the old Bear, this thing is a joy to shoot and as consistent as they come.

Nice shooting, to both of you.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

This    

was shot with this original 1966 Bear 48" Magnum    
From a distance of between 12 and 18 yds.

I was 61 at that time.

P.S. Good shooting moleman!
