Got it!!
« on: January 08, 2008, 07:51:00 PM »
Got my new to me Shafer One piece today. It is 60"s and 54#s at 28"s, it has cocobola riser with what I believe is a Yew Stripe and actionboo limbs and Yew veneers. Very pretty. I got home well after dark and cannot shoot in the house as it is raining and the dogs are in, so I ran outside and shot 4 arrows in the dark. It seems quick and quiet. I need to get a diffrent string as this one is 16 strand B-50 it is like a rope. I am gonna ask Leroy to send me a 12 strand one. More tomorrow with pics. hopefully as I got a new camera for X-Mas.

Can I drag that one through the briars instead of my new Morrison?  :)

I know, my shoulder is toast anyway, surgery the last week in Feb, so I figure lots of pain pills tomorrow and I will be shooting like a fool! Shawn

No Shawn, not yet. I am wanting to, but need to learn a bit more and get some jigs made. Strings and bows...those are my next two objectives.
