I just got done putting my bowfishing gear away for the year as my schedule wont allow me another night up until 5 or 6am this time of year. as i was whiping down my longbow i tohught to myself all that it has been thru in the 9 years it has been a desiganted bowfishing bow. The bow has spent 9 years, 8 months a year covered in fish guts, scales, and blood. It has spent countless miles bouncing around on a aluminum ribbed air boat floor. It has spend hundreds of miles bouncing around on the floor of my jon boat going down the road on the trailer. it has been stepped on on the deck of the boat a million times. kicked overboard 4 times. used to push off sand bars and stumps a few times. Basically it has spent 9 years getting the crap kicked out of it and i fully expect it to last another 9 doing the same stuff.
The bow is a Thunder stick bow by Jim Reynolds. It was made for me as a gift from my hunting buddy about 14 years ago as a thank you for helping him build his house. it was my first longbow and the bow that made me switch over to a longbow ever since. I dont hunt with that bow anymore as its a designated fishing bow. But i just have to say, I cant believe the abuse it has taken. I know there are alot of people on here that shot his bows and i thought you might like to hear what mine has been thru so thought i would share.
