Agree on all counts.  Very happy to hear from you, and that is a spectacular range.

I too was very impressed by the range. Looks like they have a target all the way to the 80yd mark for those wheelie bow guys. I also like the platform for simulated stand shooting. The range is fairly new from what I gather. Only a couple years old. You don't have to be a member of any special club either! Just have to have a parking permit from the ODFW.

I did pick up a cheap ILF recurve that is 60", 40# @ 28". I strung it up and tried to pull it back this morning and have to admit, I could barely do it! :-( I think I may need to have Mike@Maddog make my longbow a little on the lighter side.

Very nice looking range!!!!  And only a few minutes up the road?????? You can't beat that with a stick!

Good to have you back, brother.

Good luck, shoot straight and God bless,

Thanks again to everyone! I am proud to call all of you friends!! I don't know how I'm going to do it but, I'm determined to get myself able to shoot at least a 40# bow again. (Minimum weight limit for Oregon) Who knows, I may still be able to break my winning streak! Winning that is, for the critters! :biglaugh: :biglaugh:

Welcome back! Mike’s longbow just looks like a smooth shooter. Let us know how you like it and enjoy your new range and returning strength.

Thanks Possum! I've owned a couple of Mikes bows in the past and love them and his customer service! I'm sure he'll deliver on a winner for me. I'm itchy to get to that new range but, been a while now so, a little longer isn't going to kill me. Priority for now is getting my son out there and teaching him.

Hey Charlie! :wavey: Hope all is well on your end. I found (in the Sponsors Classifieds) the post for the Talon Thumb tab and am going to purchase one and give it a shot. I think it will help with my drawing hand as I won't need to utilize anything except the thumb and index finger. That should minimize any pain in my ring and pinky finger. I'll post a new thread when I've got everything together and go for my first shoot. :bigsmyl:
