Pierre,
That is one of two reasons why I only shoot one arrow with my Shrew CH and then retrieve that arrow before shooting again.

Eric,

No Model-T yet, but I have been thinking about one. My problem is that since I am almost exclusively a hunter, not a competitive archer, I am so happy to be able to shoot shorter bows as opposed to the much longer ones I always had to take out hunting with me before. You know the feeling! But as excited as Ron is about shooting the Model-T, I may be missing something special.

Now that's a sweet bow. I'd love to give that bow a tryout. If it's still available when I get home from Michigan. Tempting

Ron,

I was thinking about that bow all night. How am I supposed to enjoy my vacation without sleep? I have been thinking of a model T too.  Decisions, decisions. Michigan sure is a beautiful state even after the peak of color.  I am not sure how you hunt these woods. I'd be looking at the pretty leaves on the trees and ground.

Ron,
I know that I am still down several months on your list; but if you get any of those beauties in RH and the low 50# at 28” please let me know. Smooth draw and quiet shooting from all that you have said about them, I sure would be proud to trek in the woods with that in my hand.

Missed it by a few minutes. Congrats to the buyer of a great bow. The good side to this picture for me is that I am now pre-approved by my loan officer (wife) for a new bow. So many great bows and so many decisions to make...

Hawkeye,

The last elf antler I was able to get was from a guy named Legolas. The hard part was getting to Middle Earth to pick it up. Frodo kept trying to hang out with me and mostly ended up tripping me with his big feet as we were walking along on our way there. But it was worth the trip. I managed to pick up a nice ring while I was there that I was told had been forged in the fires of Mount Doom by some fellow named Lord Sauron.

I am waiting for reports of the model-t. I don't hunt and am looking for a longer bow to enjoy shooting. Its just hard to wait. I have the money, I have my financial officer's (wife) approval.  Maybe I don't hunt cause I don't have the patience.
