My Dad's Bow
« on: November 13, 2011, 10:32:00 PM »

This was my fathers bow, he bought it the year I was born. It's a 54" Shakespeare Super Necedah, 45# at 28”. I've decided that it's time for me to go back to the basics with my archery gear.

Sky that dairy is just down the road from my house. There are alot of foxes, raccoons, and coyotes on the property. While stump shooting down there tonight I ran into 2 large mule deer bucks. And the best news is I'm the only one that hunts the property.

Trying to figure out how to do that, needless to say I'm not very computer savvy.

Gotta be lots of Mojo in that bow. I've read good things about those Necedahs.    :archer2:
