Show me your bows!
« on: September 18, 2009, 08:38:00 PM »
I just got in the lineup for a new Thunderstick III or MOAB, and I haven't decided what woods to use yet.  Help a guy out and show me some wood combos to think about.  

Thanks

Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.
