Thanks Logan. Its just like the one you shot but with a longer riser. She seems pretty fast and very quiet. Don't worry I haven't forgot about ya.

I think I've got it narrowed down for my first hunt in Georgia with SticknStones and BowhunterGA

   

This is a no-namer I bought off another member this month for practically nothing because of the poundage. Not sure who made it. He didn't know either. It's 75# at 28" and my heaviest bow by far. I just got into heavier bows about a month back and am pulling it great.

The arrows are Heritage 250s with Vintage Archery 150g inserts and 145g Eclipse heads. Arrows come out at 725g with tubes.

The quiver is one of my Dad's (Ripforce) homemade Birchbark Rovers. A special one he made for me.

I'll probably start my season with my CostalBend Longbow. Pulls just under 70 at my draw shooting some blems with 100gr inserts and 200grain VPA 3 blades or Tusker Aztecs.

 

Then there is always my old Martin Mamba just under 60lbs at my draw I'll be shooting some Kustom King pre-finished wood shafts from her this year and No Mercy Zwickeys out of her.
