Well, it's here!
« on: January 20, 2010, 07:57:00 PM »
I was sittin in my house today eating some microwavable country fried steak and rockin out to some Guns n roses when I noticed that the dogs were going crazy and happened to see a UPS guy driving down our driveway. So I walked outside and pee'd down my leg a little bit when I saw the guy carrying a big ol' longbow shaped box. Turns out it was the Savannah that my Parental Unit got me for my birthday last week. Called my parents right away to tell them I got it and to thank them again and tell them what great parents they were (honest) and then began unwrapping. I have to give kudo's to Martin. I got a free bow sock, an OK string (still not great), and a decent arrow rest. Got it set up and shot some arrows out of it. My jaw hit the ground when I saw the speed. It shoots very flat out to 30 and even 40 yards. I'm gonna shoot it sparingly until I have some more stuff for it (tip protector, grip, etc.) because I don't want to ding it up but it's gonna hunt this season with my Check Mate (when it get's here   :help:  

Not Ted.

You've got some pretty special Parental Units there. Belated B-Day wishes and enjoy that new bow. I hear those Savannah's are awesome bows. I'd like to shoot one some day. Congrats!

Congratulations, and it sounds like you are "hooked".

Guys, You know you're old when the music of our generation (the 80's) is referred to as "retro" by the local radio stations!

I just traded for a #55 savanah last week. Smooth, flat and fast. I shoot this better than any longbow I have tried.

You feel old being "retro", The era I played and toured in is now considered  "Classic Rock",.   :saywhat:  
Never figured I could have been involved in anything "Classic".    "[dntthnk]"

Yep. It was pretty flat out to 40 yards. I am impressed. My only beef with it is that when I was looking it over, the limb tips aren't stellar but that's not a terribly big deal.
