Tim, that is a nice bow. I have one just like it in 40#. Also, I like the knife in the picture. It looks simple and and ready for business. Who is the maker?

[Tim Reese]

Sam it’s a Great Eastern Cutlery made in Titusville PA. There local so I try to buy them but more importantly there very serious people about quality American old school manufacturing the way it should be. I would highly recommend looking at them. The prices are very reasonable also. They make beautiful traditional slip joints also that are nothing short of perfect. I took a tour there a few years ago and wasn’t even planned. I popped in and Bill the owner gave my daughter and I a factory tour at every station.

[Tim Reese]

The top one is the H-40 and the middle one is slightly smaller and is the H-30 I believe. I like the top one but the middle one is a bit small for my paws but makes a wicked fishing knife. Or a great knife to mount to a back quiver which is my plan for that one.

Africa in July was cancelled due to Covid.  Worked out well for me as I had emergency surgery for a ruptured appendix early June, so I wouldn't have been shooting a bow yet anyway due to surgeons instructions.  Have plenty vacation left for deer hunting 😀.  Will split time between my farm in Missouri and the place I just bought here in Indiana.  Couple candidates for a ride in the truck hanging around the new place, excited about the new farm.

I'm shooting Dads old MA2 with the original limbs for that one, 62 at 29, 64 inch limbs.  .340s and big Snuffers. 

Next couple years gonna get busy, Africa put off till 2021, working on AK moose for '21 too, looking at several possibilities for '22.

Also never thought I'd see GECs on here!  Discovered these a couple years back....man it's good I dont live near the factory store!  Dont "need" more knives but I had to pick up a 2 blade #23 in woodland micarta for a belt knife.  GEC quality is something else!

I will be hunting deer and whitetails. Run and gun on public land. Carrying my muddy stick and stand. My go to bow for the passed two year Hoyt satori 41 pounds at 29in. Goldtip arrow pierce with 300 grain grizzlies single bevel up front.

[Terry Green]

70# MOAB to start... Zwickey Delta 4 blades ..... Bears beware 

[Todd Brickel]

I have an exciting fall ahead with a quality high country mule deer hunt here In Colorado and a Shiras Moose hunt In Wyoming after 21 years of patient applying.

The bow from my collection getting the nod this year is my 15th Anniversary Bighorn Ramhunter Longbow built in 1992.  It is 60#s @ 28”.  I’m shooting footed Surewood Douglas fir shafts, made up by me using True North Arrows products.  Tipped with Zwickey Black Diamond Delta two-blade broadheads.

Attached are pictures of my set-up and my first choice moose found while scouting.

[Cyclic-Rivers]

Had a pig hunt cancelled during to a family emergency.  Focusing on whitetail. 

Using a  big jim Thunderchild. May switch up later if desired.  As far as arrows, they're carbon with instinct broadheads.  Cant remember the weight but they fly straight and are heavy enough

[MnFn]

Thought it would be a BW MA 50#, but for some reason I started shooting my Stickflinger and it is shooting really well, so who knows. I am blessed to have a few bows I really like. Blessed and cursed, how do I decide?

Probably 2117 with two hundred grain heads.
Only whitetails on the schedule.

Because of my job out of state, I'll more than likely only be hunting one day out of my regular Oregon early archery season. And depending on when the commercial crab season starts, I might not get much out of the late archery season. I'll be using my 64" blacktail--60# @ 29" with 31.5" goldtip velocities tipped with 100 grain inserts and 200 grain cutthroats. Hoping to find a pig hunt while in California!
