Getting drawn to the dark side of the force....Picture added!
« on: February 03, 2016, 08:28:00 AM »
I did it!
There will be a recurve in my stable, when my spot on the list is on!

Funny thing is I did it because I am satisfied with my longbows, go figure!

Let me go a repaint the dog house for when the boss will discover that    :biglaugh:      :shaka:

Welcome to the recurve side. It happens to the best of us.
Now we need you to start shooting from the left side, and the transition will be complete.    :bigsmyl:

My friend shooting a 3D course on Bigjim personal range, I realize that recurves can be silent and fast when I saw the bowyer shooting his bighorn! From there it was easy to want one   :biglaugh:

Whew! For a minute I thought you meant compound bows. Actually, recurves are only the shaded side of the force, not actually the dark side.

this is when it gets a little complicated because if he starts shooting 3 under with a tab and gun barreling those little carbons it becomes more of a chilly mist with a grayish hue    :biglaugh:   only kidding...
