My first PSA widow that I sold in a moment of weakness and a Morrison that was the best performing bow I've ever owned.

Yes I have tried to buy them both back... No dice on getting the bows back.. LOL

Dean, you have about 7 or 8 bows that I miss that is for sure. I bet you have had about 120 bows since I have known you.

The first recurve I bought was a Browning fire drake I stumbled on in a pawn shop, I bought it for a $100 and kept it for about 5/6 years then sold it to a friend for what I had in it.
 
 Sevral times I've asked to buy it back but he wont budge, I'd  love to have that one back, nothin like a custom bow I guess but was a nice bow to me.

God bless,Mudd

PS It's a M.O.A.B. 55@28 but wants to be called a M.O.A.N. until it changes its current residence to mine.
