Not really my bow, but my step-fathers 52# American Archery recurve. It may have been a Cheetah model. It was way too much bow for me at the time, but he was lethal with it. Who knows I just may buy a used one - there are some floating around I'm sure.
He took a doe once from about 30 yards using matches taped on for sights - that's old school. And of course, rubber band silencers.

AMEN brother!!!
