New to me Adcock 1 PC
« on: August 24, 2007, 11:16:00 AM »
My will power to stop buying bows had a break down this past week.  :rolleyes:  You guys know about the sickness, so I will not go on about it! I'm pretty much a recurve type of personality. But still have a weakness for longbows. This bow made a few second apperance on our site. And I was the fastest on the draw  :D  It arrived yesterday in the mail. I had it freed from the clutches of its box in seconds. With a quick over inspection, and strung. Off to the backstop we went, shot it 40 to 50 times during the afternoon. This morning I took it to the downstairs range and shot a few. I think we can make some venison backstraps this fall with it. Least we are going to try our best!
 

It is a ACS 60" 1PC 51 Lbs @ 28"

Never thought I'd get my hands on one of O.L.'s 1 PC bows  :saywhat:  

           Sweet shooter!

Nothing wrong with a sickness that is not terminal. As a matter of fact, many sicknesses help build immunities. Your (our) sickness will help keep us immune from that nasty compound virus.

A real sweet bow for sure!!

No cure for this, just a treatment...more bows or more shooting or both! It's a condition you will just have to live with.

Very nice Brent.  I was just thinking I should cruise up and visit you some day before deer season gets into full swing.

Brent I hear you buddy I have the weakness for nice bows.  Yesterday I just bought a Morrison Cheyenne and a Shrew Samurai!!  I thought I might have to retreat to Allegan for a place to stay after I got home!!

Just a word of wisdom, and experience. They have total grievance recall. The water that went under the bridge today. Can and will recircleulate. With higher flood waters tomorrow   :eek:  

Your always welcome to come over and shoot in the yard. Tonight is good   :D   Only 6 miles south of Allegan!

My wifes Mom lives in Allegan off from on 38th between 112th and 111th so I dont think that is to far from you.  Might have to see if we can get together and do some shooting.  I will have to talk to her and see what we have going tonight.
