Various bows, but if you see me shooting, it's probably a Toelke in my hand!

I have to admit I'm starting to get the itch as well, been shooting broadheads and climbing the tree at least once a week to put myself in the right frame of mind!  This year I'll be going after them with a Hill Country Wildcat - 50# @ 30" - 150 grn VPA up front.

My main set up will be a 60" PSR Black Widow 51 at 28" drawn to around 30". My arrows will be Heritage 150's with a 175 gr. Woodsman elite on the business end.

I have a Centaur that will see a little woods time this year also. Not sure on the arrows for this bow yet.

Good thread! As for myself ill be using my Osage Custom longbow ( maker unknown ) that I won on the St. Judes auction 69" 69 lbs @ 28, with lodgpole pine shafts and Hill broadheads.
Since it has no makers marks ive named it " Childs Play " in honor of the kids.

Never question a man's choice in bows or the quality of an animal he kills.  He is the only one who has to be satisfied with either of those choices.

Well... someone in their infinite wisdom threw out a perfectly good vintage Bear Kodiak Magnum  :scared:  their garbage is my new treasure and after shooting it tonight for a while I'm really digging this bow and think I might make it part of my hunting rig this year  :thumbsup:

Love those old Hunters, mine was a 45#er too.

Probably same as last season for me, 64" Kohannah Kurve, around 57# at my draw. Some kinda woodies, old and new...

   

Maybe an old Pearson Cougar if I can get it all refinished by then. With wood also...

   

   

Hoping to maybe get another old Bear to shoot with these now that Jon Stewart gave me some old Razorheads for them...(thanks again, dude!)

   

Looking forward to time chasing deer and occasional smaller furry or feathered creatures, no matter what set-up I'm toting along.

I might change out that Kanati as it is heavy on my bow. Would rather use a 3 arrow EFA! Hint Hint!   :D
