I am in a fret about this right now!

Had a beloved Uncle pass away earlier this year. He was a hunting buddy of my Dad's (the older brother Dad never had sort of thing). When Uncle Roy couldn't hunt anymore he gave me his '68 Bear. I have had it for years. I got it out this spring in his memory and have been shooting it. I forgot how great this bow shoots!

I have it all pretty well set-up (44lbs.@28) and could head to the woods with it right now with confidence, BUT how would my DH Hunter feel about being left at home? How do I feel about leaving without it?

I think the best thing may be to alternate hunts (a joint custody type of deal). Or maybe hunt deer with the Bear, and hogs with the Hunter.

Either way I will be useing GT-EH with 150gr. Woodsmans/Snuffers. I shoot RW Hel. 5.5 inch fletches.

Then again, I haven't shot the RedWing Hunter in a while either...

Just got booked in for shoulder surgery.   :(  

So my "go to" set up will a pair of bino's, and a camera.

Bollocks!

Ah, well, better to have this fixed, and be fully fit next year.

But this does mean that a honker of a buck will walk by me!   :banghead:

The old stanby, 66" Robertson Mystical #60 @ 29", tapered ash arrow with 160g Ace BH, 775g. Playin' with a couple other bows but this one is always ready. I think that old Robertson can shoot all by itself.
