Brian: What kind of shafts you using? Looks like your having fun with them.

I added another bow to the rack, another NM Classic, but this one is a TD. At 70" and only about 46#, it is a real pleasure to shoot. Like I was afraid of when I bought it, I'm having so much fun shooting this lighter draw weight, I'm starting to ignore the heavier draw weight bows!

Chuck,
These are some poplar shafts a friend gave to me a year ago.  I have a doz hildenbrand Sitka spruce in the mail for my serious arrows.

And as far as lighter weight goes, I know what you mean. My 45 and 47 lbr get shot a lot, the 50 too, but for some reason the 54 pound bow sits a lot  :)

When shooting my bows in the garage, I would lay them down flat on the freezer. When outside, l'd lay them down on either the deck or on the gazebo. I began to worry about dinging up the edges of my bows, so I whipped up this simple bow stand:

   
   
   
   

I like this better than hanging my bows from pegs, etc.

BTW: The bow on the left is the to me NM Classic TD that I picked up from Terry Keeney (neargeezer.) Thanks, Terry. It is sitting alongside my other Classic, a Dave Johnson and  a JD Berry.

Starting tomorrow, I will be off line for a while. I expect this thread to be in good shape when I get back. See you next turkey season.

Chuck,

That's a very nice looking bow stand for just being "whipped up"!

Glad the classic fits your grip better than mine. It looks like it has some mighty fine company to reside with on that stand!

Hey Guys - Just thought I'd share a couple pics of my latest Hill style bow I built.  It's 68" long, 58# @ 28".  The riser is Macassar Ebony and the limbs are Honey Locust/actionboo.

I think me and this bow are going to get along great.
