Ed,
Actually it is an older bow of his.  Non-fastflight, small tips.  I can't identify the wood and Mike doesn't have records for original order.  Three laminations, clear glass, riser looks like stained maple with the contrasting overlays.
Never the less, I picked it up for $400.  Looks like 98%.  If you overlook the string, the rest and the tarnish on the limb bolts, you would think it is new.  I can't see how I could lose money on the deal.

We need a support group.. Maybe we could meet at the Rocky Mt Specialty or Big Jims or the BW show room.  I'll drive.   :campfire:

It seems many of us have the same affliction and I see no cure in sight.

The one-bow folks (I know there are a few of you out there) have very strong will power.

I admire them for that, but look at the fun they are missing.

I have bought some bows that are beautiful to look at, but on the initial setup and shooting sequence, I end up disappointed.

That just adds to the challenge and enjoyment.

I mentioned to a friend, that I might sell a bow or two...

He replied "What?....you're selling a bow?

Guess I better not ever commit that sin.

Great idea, Joe, but a bit tough for those of us without a current passport...Abe Penner is pretty centrally located...maybe we Canucks could meet there, eh

I set out a while ago to reduce my herd of 40 bows...And I am finally down to 42
