New To Me Toy came today
« on: July 28, 2007, 06:15:00 PM »
My new to me Assenhiemer T/D Master Hunter came today. WOW is all I can say. What a pleasure to shoot. 62" amo 52# @ 28". Riser is cocobola and lepoard wood and limbs are bamboo with if I remember right cherry veineers. I will check with Corey on that.

I am afraid I am converting from longbows to curves. I shoot my Blacktail and this one as good if not better than my longbows.   :eek:      :bigsmyl:

Thanks Ron.

Jeff, I will never get rid or quit shooting my longbows. I just never shot curves like thees two. I guess they just fit right.

Ron, That was at 20 yrds. I've been practicing a lot at that range to get ready for my caribou hunt.

I understand fully what you are going through and its all good. I should be getting my first custom longbow in a few days I hope and I am a recurve shooter...   :rolleyes:    I have been shooting some longbows here lately that seem to fit me too. LOL

 Best of Luck to You on your Hunt

Bubba,

Now that just ain't right! What is that 10 on the rack now? Nice bow and nice shooting. Now back up to 30 and practice there. May not get to 20 on the bou.

Very nice Donny. I like shooting both and have just added a new Zipper Extreme to the stable. The longbows greatly out number the recurves here, but I still like to have a few around.

No Bro Still 7 when I get the Dryad.LOL. 'Member I sold the Crow Creek and Zipper, but picked up the Assenheimer and a Zipper longbow made by Bob. Been thinking real hard on a Silvertip.

With my new ghillie I hope to be at 10 or so.

Glad you like it.  Someday i'll get another one, when life affords me the time to enjoy it.  I also found all of the paperwork for it and will get that sent off to you, Donald.
