Thanks for the great story & Pix Matt. That bow is as beautiful as any I've seen. Complete passthrough w/585gr. Now that's perfect!

To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

Congradulations on an impressive animal. I'm glad it was not the real Yogi though, Jellystone would never be the same.
