That is awesome...I never will forget the way I used to look longingly at my dad's K-mag. It was 60 lbs. unfortunately before I was big enough to get it, our house was broken into while we were in Anchorage, and someone tried to string it, twisting the lower limb and separating the laminations. I had one that was 50 lbs...but I always wanted to carry dads lol. Thanks for sharing!

I've lost a couple good bows that way, most recently my 65# Cascade Goshhawk, which I never would have believed my 16 year-old could shoot. He's 5'6" 135# and shoots that bow better than I ever did. Wrapped it up and gave it to him last Xmas. He makes me proud every day. Now my 11 year-old daughter has taken a liking to my Pearson Mach 1, oh well. I couldn't be happier.

Bow is far from lost - sounds like it has a great new home!

Can't beat that! My son is four and I have a .22 rifle, a 20 ga., and a 45# Dream Catcher set back for him. I just bought the DC. Was on the fence and my wife said go ahead and get it, he can use it someday. Can't wait to take him hunting!
