Good job on adding another kill to her list of success.

That bows going to be worth a boat load of money by the time she gets to auction.

Well, my time with Faith ended this evening without making any lethal shots.  She had plenty of opportunities to enjoy a beautiful Iowa October.    :knothead:   Tomorrow morning she will be shipped off to Razorback.  Wish you well with her.  She's a beauty.  Big thanks to Tradgang and Rick Ellis for the opportunity to shoot Faith for a couple of weeks. It is a spectacular bow!     :clapper:

I got to shoot Miss Hope yesterday!!! Thanks Ron (et al!)!!!

She drew so sweet and steady, pointed where my thoughts went and sent the 2016s to the mark with authority. Said not a thing about it, either, did her job quietly and without so much as a shrug.

Wow. What a bow!

Ron,
  I can't believe you had her in camp and I didn't get to see or shoot her.  I'll have to wait for April now.

For once it's nice to be a lefty. I put my name in the hat with JC for Faith in  April. Sure hope I get it? It'll give me alot of Faith this Spring Turkey Season...

I got to shoot Hope at the Southern Indiana Hunt. All I can say is ditto to Killdeer's comments.
'cept that we shot GT 35-55s full length,100 gr brass inserts and rubber bludgeons.

WOW,
    Got home from work and there was a letter from Mr. Postman. That's right come and get her.Brought her home and boy does she shoot where you look, oh did I mention that her name is FAITH. Don't know what else to say about her, we've only known each other for an hour.

Miss Hope and I will be leaving in the morning for a extended hunt in Mississippi, the evening hunts should be very good the next two days so I "hope" to get to properly welcome her to our lease. I can honestly say that I've never been what I consider a good shot with any longbow....except Miss Hope, she's a tack driver, I shoot her as good if not better than my recurve, and after shooting her the past three days I can say that I'm confident out to 25 yards. Hopefully I can properly introduce her to a Mississippi whitetail over then next couple days. I've been trying to talk her into relocating here permanently but she insists on doing some more traveling before settling down, I introduced her to a friend of mine "Bayoulongbowman" yesterday and he took her for a spin, I felt obliged to introduce Ms. Hope to Mark as he's a super nice guy, and he's the reason our local pro-shop is expanding their trad equipment supplies. I'll be at the camp for a few days with this pretty lady but rest assured, she's in good hands, and hopefully when she arrives at "littlefeather's", she'll have another story or two to tell. Here are two pics of Miss Hope and the "bayoulongbowman", Mark Chambers.  

 

Mark shoots lefty by the way.... but he sure shot Miss Hope well from the "right" side, lol.

Glad to hear y'all are extending some of your southern hospitality to the lady, Miss Hope.
