Initiated my new Schafer limbs
« on: October 29, 2009, 02:26:00 PM »
This morning was a beautiful warm morning here in Appalachia with all the fall colors . About 8 o'clock I see a buck walking a bench above me , he turns and decides to come walk around the logging road I'm set up below . At first I wasn't sure I wanted to shoot him this early in the season , but glad I did after looking him over. Not a monster by any standards but a nice kill here in this area . I hit him almost where I was looking ,but he ran uphill 50 yards and stumbled back to my stand and gave up the ghost. I used a KME sharpener and couldn't be happier .Shot him with a Schafer Silvertip 60" 50@27" , carbon express 90's and a 2 blade magnus head .

   


Smiling
Jack

Nice buck..well done.

Jack,

That riser does look familiar (:

Glad you found limbs better suited to you.

Did you have to buy new limbs, or were you able to make a swap on them?

I can't tell exactly what the limbs are, but they sure are pretty.

With trad gear, that is a respectable buck anywhere.

How bout sending me that hat....it might change my luck.
