Well just got all caught up on this thread. Looking forward to my time with Hope in October. My shoulder surgery is Wednesday morning so got a long road back to 50# bows but it is a great goal for me.

Looking forward to the hand off AT.  How did she do on the TX Tusker hunt?

I was toting Hope all week at the TX TUSK HUNT and wanted to add to her legacy.  Well, I got only wo shot opportunities and I took them. Cant believe I shot  both with 4 blade Zwickeys and didn't mess up on shoulder, ham, or back strap......

Well the hand off took place in front of the old Bass Pro in SA TX.  No pics cause the two off us together would have been just too much.
 :o
Took Hope out of her sock and am truly impressed, she is a looker.  She certainly is the Fenwick flyrod version of longbows, and will be a delight to carry.  A GN strap-on quiver with 4-5 arrows will no doubt more than double her weight.  The colors are a shade darker than the pics indicate due to sunlight, I'm sure.  First impression of the grip is it fits me perfect.  The R/D is good on this bow.  I'll see if I have anything that will shoot through this bow.  Perhaps I have some lighter spine wood arrows tucked away.

I was shooting my arrow dynamic that I always shoot out of 60 to 70# bows. Wood arrows might be different for sure though.

I'd like to try woodies, but have Beman ICS 400 that I can tinker with.  Also, may even be able to unearth some aluminum shafts that will work.

Can't believe that no lefties want Faith for March.
I get cataract surgery next week and won't be able to take her to the woods w/o enough practice before April.

Cmon' southpaws. She's quick and sassy! As well as beautiful.

Can’t wait for April! I have everything from 500’s to 340’s to play with in all different lengths. I’m hoping for my first longbow turkey 🤞🏻

Thx slowbow....this bow is a shooter for sure. I've shot a lot of Hope n Faith bows over the years but this one seems to fit me best as I shoot it lights out!!!! 

It's a really well designed bow that I can't find any negatives about.

So far I really like the grip and the smooth draw.  Hope tomorrow I'll get to throw some arrows.

I’m a recurve guy 100% so I’m looking forward to shooting hope and trying my hand at a longbow.

Caleb;  I think you'll really like the grip, transfer from "recurve" feel is almost instant.  Most "hybrid" R/D longbows feel and shoot very similar to recurve bows.  I've heard them refered to as "straight limbed recurves".  Benefits of both designs.

Looking forward to it. Our gobblers are just now splitting off from the large groups. Same time frame as last year. The beginning to middle or April should be dynamite.
