Great bows are sweet indeed but...............
« on: May 11, 2013, 08:13:00 PM »
I see lots of posts on some great looking bows and yes! Great bows are sweet indeed, but for some of our new comers let us not forget to over emphasize the importance of a razor sharp head and a properly tuned shaft, for that is what truly gets the job done cleanly and efficiently, no matter what bow propels it.
The key element of any bow, be it new, old, beautiful or ugly is a properly tuned shaft and a finely honed, razor sharp head placed in the sweet spot.
Theres only one thing that can make a great bow better, and that is dedication ,combined with a finely tuned shaft, with razor sharp heads leading the way.   :campfire:

I guess "sharp" is a relative term, but mine are razor sharp.

Funny thread.

Good message though.  A well matched arrow can make any bow shoot good.  I have had a few No named bows out shoot my custom bows in the past.

BTW, I am ok with scary sharp, it doesnt have to be razor sharp.

I have been told that I'm as sharp as the leading edge of a bowling ball.
