Enjoyed your story Jeremy, thanks for sharing your thoughts. I'm convinced God does not count the time against a hunter sitting on the stand contemplating deep questions....

Thanks Jeremy.... Hope arrived here safe and sound about an hour ago...... I've got to say this is a lot of bow for a guy who's been shooting self bows and old glass longbows for so long......Smooth to draw and about 10-15# lighter than I'm used to but I'm still getting a very clean release....My only problem is my eye is set up for my bows and I'm hitting high...Way high like a foot high at 20 yards...... grouping great but I just can't get those arrows down yet..... :D  I may have to try anchoring under my eye.... What's the timeline "T".....When do I have to send her back out and who does she go to??..... Terry

Received "Faith" from Greg on the evening of the 29th... what a beautiful bow! The arrows I wanted to try out of her fly perfect, so I took her down to southern Illinois with me for a few days. Hopefully I'll have a few stories next time I check in!

Well, I sent "Faith" off to Maryland, her next scheduled destination, today. Since I received her on the 29th of December, we have travelled and hunted in far southern Illinois, and then went out to west-central Illinois.

We had a wonderful time, with lots of days in the wilds, both sunrises and sunsets, but in the end our trophy turned out to be just that... our time spent together [which was just fine with me].

She is a beautiful bow, with great shooting characteristics, and her 60" length coupled with the take-down system make her quite a handy hunting tool. She will make a fine companion to whoever is lucky enough to give her a permenant home.

I have some pictures to post, but they're on my home computer, so I will try and get them up tonight.

Oh boy, I think that means shes heading my way!!!!  I can't wait.  When I signed up for her I was hoping to take her on a South Carolina hog hunt.  That's not going to work out, but I will get her in the late season MD whitetail woods a time or two and maybe after some small game.  We will see what happens.  I can't wait.

I picked Faith up at the post office this morning.  Man oh Man, what an awesome sight when I opened the package.  The bow is awesome.  I was shooting it real good right away.  Immediately took it on a walk for rabbits, jumped one, but no shot.  I won't be able to get it out for deer until next Saturday, but I should get to do a few more rabbit walks.  I'll keep you posted.

I gotta say, I love this bow.  It is fantastic.

Well guys . . . I got a huntin' story.  Blood fell in Maryland this afternoon.

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to get pics from the memory card to my computer?  I didn't see a USB cord.  I took some pics with the camera that I can print in my printer and include in the log book, but I'd like to put them here too.

Man, I like this bow.

Thanks,

Ted

BLM - I got it.  Will send to Shawn next.

SuperK, I'm trying to figure out a way to get the pics from the memory card to the computer to put the story up.  If I can't figure it out in the next day or so, I'll just tell it in text - hopefully with more to the story by then.
