Just finished fletching up some 2016's for what I hope will be my back-up...

64" 52@28 Griffin longbow.  30" xx75 2016's wearing 150gr (screw-in) Wensel Woodsmans.

New Acadian Woods 3-pc Tree Stick due up in the next week or so... 58" and 50@28.  Planning on using some Legacy 2018's and WW's.  We'll see how the arra's tune, and how I shoot 'em after the bow arrives...


   :pray:
Rose Oak Ace 41@28
Super Shrew Gold 42@28
Black Widow PCH-X 40@28
Toelke Pika 43@28
