Got my new bowfishing set-up today!!
« on: March 28, 2008, 07:14:00 PM »
Well after looking a lot of stuff over I bought a PSE Kingfisher and a AMS retreiver 4 points and 4 fisharrows and I also picked Up a LH AMS for $36 brand new, everything was $204 and I believe a steal. I came home and set evrery thing up and it is sweet. I had the op. to get a bunch of nice older recurves, but I wanted something I can drop and beat up real good, this PSE fits the bill, and it shoots great! Shawn

You did good for that price for sure. I have a PSE kingfisher in my line up of fishing bows and it sure can take a lot of abuse. I look forward to seeing your future hero pics.

Good gear there!  One problem though, the kingfisher sinks while a lot of wooden bows float.  When you are pulling in that hog-of-a-carp, don't drop your bow.

As long as the line is attached you can get your bow back. Ask me how I know  :knothead:  Nice set-up. Shoot a bunch.

We have another month before we can start up, but Curt, Damon and I are gonna be going for sure. Damon has a hot spot on Sleepy Hollow Lake, it should be good. I went out and shot it some tonight and I will not have to worry about holding low, the thing at 10 yards drops aboout 10"s below point of aim. I can't wait!! Jamie ya can come too ya know!! Shawn

Sounds cool Shawn, but I have no gear for it. Let me know though...I have often wondered what all the fuss was about with bowfishing. I would love to get out there and find out.

Sounds like a good deal Shawn   :thumbsup:  me and Joe are set up good this year Joe has a Bear 76er  and I'm shooting a Grizzly we both have AMS reels and about 3 arrows a piece. It looks like I'm going to buy a small boat.
