New bow. :)
« on: September 29, 2011, 07:33:00 PM »
Received my Checkmate hunter today in the mail which I received from a trad ganger in the classifieds.

Fat Daddy was a pleasure to deal with and the bow was shipped promptly and was very well packaged.

two sets of limbs, 59#@28" and 70#@28"

Extremely happy with my purchase and I can't wait to shoot this bow more.

Best Curve for the money. I've got a bunch of different bows but Moose, stone sheep, Mt. goat, black-tail, white-tail, mule deer, bear, hog and others have all fallen to my Checkmate Hunter, have owned them for over 15 years, you won't be disappointed!!
