Harrelson Arrived today
« on: July 23, 2011, 04:26:00 PM »
Rec'd my new (to me) LH Harrelson today mostly as expected. Never tried LH. It'll be fun learning southpaw shooting exercises if nothing else. So far just trying to keep the arrow on the rest w/o falling off. Pics show.

To the point, This bow came from longtime TG'er (C. Boswood) believe in North Carolina. Tried a search for his handle but couldn't find it. Always amazed at the generosity of good folks here. What wasn't expected was the dozen barred feather wood beauties that came with it. That's above & beyond our deal. Appreciated & much obliged Cleve. Thought I'd let everyone know you;re a straight arrow guy to deal with.

The pleasure is all mine thank you foryour patience with me in and out of the hospital. It seemed like it took forever to get that bow shipped. I'm loving the bibs and the knife I was in the market for a new pocket knife

Much thanks for your kind words. It's a LH Harrelson I miked at 60#@28" & around 68# +/- at my draw (which is still in progress). Shooting lh is a humbling experience at best & worst a dismal failure so far. But, I just couldn't stop shooting. Really not so bad for the first time on the opposite side of the string. I'll get it before long. May call on Justin for some LH tips. Good news is that everything taken for granted righthanded is way inadequate lh (see skid marks below). Worse case is it'll serve as a great exercise bow with my offhand as I've already told so many of you guys before.

 

Dang if I don't Pat! You're welcome to visit anytime. We'll put the horses to work. Its slight r/d & zings an arrow. W1, I'll get more on the bow & PM you later. I like it but never shot lh before. Cleve, hope you;re ok partner. Uggh.., good trade.

Thanks Steve. Can't wait to see that monster you've got coming this week. I'll not give it away.

Clarify above pic; the string hit everywhere the guard wasn't above & below. Just plain lucky ain't it?
