Well, a little story at least. I'll make a post in the PowWow section, but suffice it to say that this little bow is a a fine shooter. I went on what was essentially a 2 1/2 day hunt for hogs and javies at a ranch outside of Laredo. The first half day the javies weren't moving much from the cold front, but I saw some activity the next couple of days. I was lucky enough to take my first javi at around 22 yards. Had another about the same size at around 10 yards later in the hunt, but I saw a large boar that was around 40 yards away and I was going for it. He wound up going into cover before I could get a shot. I shot a hog by a feeder under lights, then shot a very large hog that would have gone over 300 pounds about 20 minutes later. I couldn't see that arrow on that second hog, and it didn't seem right. I couldn't find either arrow or blood at the site, so I went back to camp to get my sidearm and a better light. By the time I got back to the spot, it was around 2 1/2 hours later. Found the first arrow broken and good blood. The hog went around 50-60 yards through the thick stuff, but the coyotes had gotten after it. Couldn't find the second arrow or blood, so I came back the next morning. Found the arrow with only blood on around 4 inches of the shaft. Must have hit a shoulder. I'm sure that the hog is still around causing trouble.
I'm probably not going to have much time for hunting the rest of the month because of my work schedule. I'm gonna send it to the next lucky customer a little early. Some bidder at the St. Jude's auction is gonna get a fine little bow.
Oh yeah, here is the gratuitous head shot armadillo pic.
