Most of this season will be spent with my Predator recurve.

This will be season number 14 with the same bow.

My arrows will be the discontinued Vapor Carbonwood 5000`s, and they will carry either a Magnus-1 or Zwickey Delta.

Most of my time will be spent using climbers, BUT there is always some ground pounding involved.

'Ol reliable Groves Spitfire 56" 57# along with the newest addition for whitetails...Jack Kempf Longbow (which is being glued up now), 58" 55#.

Add to this, I'm going to hunt left handed also, my buddy made a beauty 60" 47# recurve for me to use. Plan is taking deer both RH and LH. 2117's with 135 gr Zwickey Deltas, 125 gr Eskimos and 160 gr Snuffers.

Also have some barrel tapered ash made up for the lefty bow which come in at 500 grains. This could be an interesting season.........
