No luck, did not even see any hogs until it was dark thirty and no where near range. Going again this weekend on sunday for a last attempt. But full moon messing up the move. Can you forward me the address of the next person so I can ship out ASAP monday morning. I have more pics to post when I get a chance.

So finished shooting her today for the last time. I am going to miss her as we were just starting to get to know each other well. My final review is the bow is just pure awesome. A joy to shoot, and physically beautiful. I took it today to shoot with a group of trad 3D shooters and made sure to put it in as many hands as I could and jotted down in my mind all the feedback they gave. I asked em all what they thought of the bow in looks and feel. This is what I got.

"Very quiet bow, one of the quietest I have not heard, and very fast too."

"What kind of wood is that, it is just beautiful (regarding the veneer on limbs) that bow is very nicely built" Later I found out this gentleman builds bows

"Feels awesome in the hand, I love the grip, it feels so solid"

"One of the smoothest bows I have ever drawn, if it is 53lbs at 28" that is very impressive" "it does not feel like a 50lb bow at all"

"Its very quiet, all you hear is like a release going off, the click from a compound,the deer will never know what hit it"

Everyone that saw it commented atleast on the asthetics of it.

My shooting was off today, no fault of the bow. I changed too many things at once trying to zero in on tuning the arrows. But still had a great time shooting a great bow.

Dave, thank you very much for this pass around opportunity. Hopefully I can save up enough funds at some point to work on a bow with you. If anyone ever asks for a recommendation, you will definetly be at the top of the list.

Nattybumpp, check your pms tomorrow, will forward tracking number, hope you enjoy her as much as I did.

Just arrived!!! Sadly to bad weather in GA!!! Going to have to be content today to sit and drool over it...

Hopefully it will get in on a bunny hunt first of the week! Maybe I will get lucky tomorrow and get a break between fronts and get to try and stick a squirrel with it!

Hope to have some pics Sunday of it being shot by a bunch of Wounded Warriors! Heading down to a hog/goose hunt that a buddy is doing for some heroes. I'm rabbit hunting and then cooking those guys lunch. We're going to have a little shoot around after lunch. Going to spread the trad love a little!!!

BTW- Any of you who has served. THANK YOU! GOD BLESS!!!!
