Ha pay no attention to the date on the picture.  As much as the batteries die in my camera and I have to change them so much that I never bother with setting the date..lol  I didn't see it until I posted it..Oh well

Gonna be shooting my 68" Great Northern Traditional 46#@28" and some Surewood shafts, we are getting along well!!!

[MulieMike]

I was told my Blacktail VL will be done in August! it will be 62" 60#@28 if it is not done in time for me to get comfy before the season starts ill be using a Brack Drifter 64" 62@28. Arrows will be Doug Fir made by TK with 125 woodsmen elites.

[misfire]

Primary setup will be the 47# Bama Hunter with a strap on Selway 4 arrow quiver. The arrows for this are 30" tapered Fir. On the business end will be Zwickey Eskimos.  

Secondary setup is a 50# Quinn Longhorn Classic T/D recurve. The quiver is a homemade 4 arrow screw in type. I couldn't find a quiver I liked on this bow so I made this one. I'll work on getting a photo. The arrows are 2016 Gamegetters cut to 30", tipped with 125 gr Stingers.

Counting the days!

47# Super D, but this year it will sling some woodies I got from the St. Jude auction .... at least I am hoping.  Haven't tried them with a BH yet.

[duncan idaho]

1. Bigfoot Sasquatch, 63# at 29 ins.

2. Eaglewing Static Recurve, 60 # at 29 ins.

3. ******** Traditional , BBF carbon extreme limbs, 63# at 29 ins.

4. 2219 classic arrows with 175 WW broadheads.

5. Big Jim bow quiver.

[LittleBen]

It's always hard for me to choose because by the time hunting season starts I've usually made at least a handful of new bows.

Both bows will be shooting their own set of Surewood Doug Fir, probably finished around 500grains with something sharp in 160ish grain ... probably gonna go simmons or tusker or magnus ... undecided

This year I'm gonna be between a 58" 44#@26" R/D wooden flatbow shown below.
 
 

and a 62-64" all wood recurve, that I'm re-finishing up as we speak with a new set of limbs. Hoping for 45-50#@26". With stabilizer, bolt on kwikee kwiver, and elevated rest.
 

[Biathlonman]

One of my two Toelke Chinooks, both are 58" and 51@28, I draw about 29".  Both are set up with 5 arrow Thunderhorn small fry lynx quivers. Arrows will be 30" Surewood Douglas Fir, 80-85s, with a still undecided 145gr. Broadhead.  Arrows come in about 665 gr. And leave my bows about 150 fps.

The same as I use every year!!!

My 47# 1967 Bear Grizzly, Easton "Autumn Orange" 2016s, tipped with old green Bear Razorheads!!!

[Danny Rowan]

Primary will be my new Schafer Silvertip recurve, gaboon ebony with B&W ebony flare and B&W ebony vaneers with copperheads on the back, smooth sheep horn tips, 58", 55#@28" I named it "NAKOHE" in by late twins honor.

Secondary will be my Cari-Bow Silver Fox longbow.B&W ebony with gaboon ebony flare and B&W ebony vaneers, 62", 52#@28", it is named "Hopeless" cause I am a hopeless bowaholic,LOL.

Hope to kill something with both on my trip to Texas in December.

[Dave Pagel]

It will probably be my 62 inch, 55# @ 28, Silvertip longbow until late season and then I will switch to a 51 @ 28 Silvertip recurve or 50# @ 28 Black Canyon recurve.  

Out of the longbow I will be shooting Surewoods with 160 VPAs or 2018s with 175 grain VPAs. Out of the recurves I will be shooting Axis Traditional 500s with 50 grain inserts and 200 grain VPAs.

D.P.

[DaveT1963]

My set up is a 68 " JD Berry Vixen @ 51#s, Gold Tip 33/55s tipped with 160 grain Simmons Land Sharks.

[rraming]

Wow, you guys are way ahead of me, just getting started mounting broadheads to different shafts for different bows - something in my signature but not sure what yet. Just because I start with one bow doesn't mean I won't switch during the season.

[John146]

For the first time in 19 years   :eek:  I will be going in the woods with a recurve instead of a longbow. I won this Bob Lee Recurve on the St. Judes Auction.
58" -55# @ 28". GT 3555's with 150gr. Woodsman's.


 

 

[Angus]

I'm out with my 66" Toelke Whip "Majick" at about 57lbs for 29 inches, Surewood shafts, probably the Catquiver 6.5, but haven't yet decided on a broadhead.  My arrows fly best with 100gr on the tip, and I'm after mulies, so any thoughts for this, guys?

[Wannabe1]

Some good looking and great sounding setups! Good luck to everyone this year. Be safe and shoot straight!

Those of you with ST Jude equipment, you got some Mojo heading to the woods with you!      

[longbowman]

Bear Custom T.D., 72# @ 27", Rose City Cedars tipped with glue on Bear Razorheads.

[PRK]

50# BW PL longbow, cedar shaft and 135 gr Magnus 2 blade.

[coconutdave]

I will be useing my Assenheimer recurve, woodies tipped with Ace 130's in a Great Northern quiver. For bear and deer.
