New Toy Showcase
« on: June 08, 2008, 06:17:00 PM »
I know some of you guys have been busy collecting and refinnishing.  Heres your chance to display some of that fine art from yesterday.  

I'll start with a few items that recently came my way.  

60K 60" 52#
62K 60" 47#
Turkey Calls came from Mike Breslin (MJB here on TG)  They are truly works of art but I plan on getting them wet and dirty next spring. For now, I'll set them on the shelf and get them down every once in a while to annoy my wife.  Thanks Mike

The most important part of your hunting setup is the broadhead.  The rest is just the delivery system.

Thats a beauty Cam, do you shoot your Deluxe?  I've shot mine, but not alot.  I actually shot it a little this morning.  

Bjorn, is the bow on the far left the new edition?

Trap, it showed lots of signs of being shot and hunted with. I've strung it and drawn it, but that's it. I had a 64" 52# 1967.5 Super Kodiak black beauty blow up on me at full draw with no warning. I was a little scraped up and heartbroken, but survived with both eyes intact. I know it can happen with any of them, but that cured me from wanting to shoot anything questionable!   :eek:  CKruse

I remember that thread, that would be scary.  

Because of all the stories I was reluctant to shoot my deluxe for a couple days.  A couple half draw affairs and I slowly crept back to full draw.  I find myself checking it alot more while shooting it than any others.

Trap:
that bow  is exactly(RH 60" 45#) like the one I found in Wis.....the guy had been using as a carp bow. Maybe it was CKruse.
The one I had went to the guy in Omaha last year.

This one came from Austin Texas Ron.  I didnt know it was butcherblock when I bought it.

The guy I bought it from gave another fella a Kodiak Magnum for it to keep him from turning it into a carp bow about 10 years ago.  Apparently he had the Mag hanging on the wall and traded up for a better wall hanger and the Mag became a carp bow.

Nice bow Mike, I love the 62Ks.  They look great and shoot even better.
