Thanks to everyone for praise of Herbs' bow. I was lucky for me to get this at Bob's Archery; but it will always be a bow by Herb Meland.
Felix; I've got a 65 lb pronghorn with Bob limbs that I carry in the sage. This one is still too nice for that. .
Broketooth; I've had seven pronghorns and only one that I didn't care for too much. The main thing that hooks you on these is the absence of hand shock and great cast. But I especially like how well tillered the limbs are and how the limbs release in perfect time. I have other bows like that too, not to imply that pronghorns are the best, but they are a great value for sure.

Randy; thanks and that is a fine elk you bagged.

PaulWa I think they told me at Bob's that this one had Actionboo cores, and I'm still going with the zebra as a working lamination on this bow. Heck I can see it.
Bow Zen I beat you and several others to it. I picked it out over several other bows including a foam core (yes Herb does have these) and a used Feret IV. I really thought this bow was performing better. And it looks fantastic.

That's a beautiful bow! I'm on the waiting list for another set of limbs for mine, and I hope to have them before the season.

I have released many arrows from my Pronghorn on the Casper mountain range. I always take my "seconds" to walk that course. Often I don't have to bring them back.   ;)  
My favorite Pronghorn is a 60" Osage with impregnated Hickory handle. I just love it.
Good shooting.

Super looking bow. Don't lay it down when hunting you'll have a hard time finding it. Natural camo is hard to beat.   :thumbsup:

Wow, this thing is still going! Thanks again and I would like to say that you can get some idea from the pics but this bow is something in person.
PrarrieDog; It does'nt get much better than Wyoming and a bow. I use to live in Casper, in fact I used to live over by Crimson Dawn (for others that is on Casper MT) for a short time.
