1 week down, Lifetime to go...
« on: May 08, 2012, 08:36:00 PM »
Been shooting for a solid week now with my 60" Deathwish longbow from Steve Welte and honestly cannot get to the range enough to shoot. I can honestly say I wake up thinking form and go to sleep thinking form. I see targets in my dreams, I see the arrows sticking out of the target while listening to my professors in school.

I am officially hooked...now time to work on my form and iron that out then time for a good old fashioned time out in the woods looking for some true fast food..

Thanks to those who have helped and to those who will help....

Craig aka Gump..

Never question a man's choice in bows or the quality of an animal he kills.  He is the only one who has to be satisfied with either of those choices.

Thanks to everyone...

To answer the questions that some of you asked..

BrianLocal3......Left the military in 2009 and could not think of another screen name so I went with old faithful that I have used on other things never went to the school but would have in a split second.

To those with Steve's bows....I could not be happier with her. Real nice bow beautiful, sleek, and downright arrow slinger.

Sequoia... I am attending DeVry university majoring in Electronic engineering.

Thank you for the service. I hear the small unit leadership training at Sapper school was phenomenal.  Also, the electronic engineering is very interesting. I myself studied industrial electronics and industrial electricity. Look into Helmets to Hardhats if your interested in trade work. They got me on too te elevator constructors and I could not be happier. Good luck brother.
