Well, I did it. New bow bought...

I drove from Clarksville, TN to Annandale, VA yesterday and this morning, after a run, I headed to Lancaster, PA. I ended up with the TradTech Pinnacle II with the masters extreme BF recurve limbs. It's 40# @ 28" and I draw 26.5 so I'm only pulling about 36#. I may crank it up to 38# tomorrow but it's shooting my axis carbons like a rocket.
I bought 2 dozen Carbon Tech Cheetah 650 arrows. I bareshafted them this evening. I started with 3 shafts at 31" and cut one shaft to 30" and shot them together. I kept reducing the one arrow until it ended up straight. They are now 28" with 125 gr. points and shooting a very tight group - straight - at 12 yards. I can't wait to get them fletched and weigh them. I'm putting 4" RW helical feathers on them.

I also loved the longbow limbs but they were significantly louder than the recurve and I have a longbow that I love to shoot so I went with the the recurve. I'm a happy camper today!

I should have ;-)

I am going to be living with my in-laws for the next year while I attend the National War College in DC.  I've got my target up in the back yard. It'll be interesting to see the looks I get in this neighborhood.
