A message from James, 'the bow is in the mail'. So how long does it take that mail to get from there to NW Iowa?  Does it come by plane, train, fast truck, pony express, ox cart, or hitch hiking hobo?

Not fast enough would be my guess....   :goldtooth:

Well, knowing James's typing skills,, it probably took him 2 days to type that so it should be arriving anytime now

The usps, ups, fedex, and the pony express came by already today nothing.  I did not see any hitch hiking hobos or ox carts anywhere either. Maybe tomorrow.

I wrote a song about a hobo, but he didn't burn the end off my new bow.  He must dyslexic, got his NW and SE mixed up.  Whether it be delivery man or hitch hiking hobo, if they hurt my bow, they will get a Red from the 70s show foot treatment.

Florida,
Pavan is probably in new JD Berry coma right now. It's a side effect of shooting a new JD Berry bow, it's too much goodness for the senses to handle

Busy place here today, one of the neighborhood cell phone girls t boned an old couple at a no stop sign corner.  No serious injuries, but jeeps burn pretty good.  Thank God her cell phone was not injured, but her purse was toast.
Oh yes, the bow.  I always thought that no sight window bows would require a lighter spined arrow. I tested a 27" bop 45 pound@28 with 125 grain point Wapiti cedar, a 48 pound@28 27" bop with 145 Wapiti cedar, 27" 1818s one with a 125 and one with a 135 point, 1918s one with a 175 point and one with 200 grain point both 27" bop, one 28" bop with four four inch left wing and 135 grain point, one 28" with three five inch right wing, cock feather in and 135 up front. Two number 8 microflites with 125 grain glue-on and one piece ferrule 27" bop. One surewood fir tapered with four five inch 57 pound and one with three five and a half inch with 160 up front 58 pound. Finally one 54 pound 27" bop wapiti tapered cedar with 5&1/2" left wing with a left wing Hill broadhead and one 53 pound wapiti cedar with a 160 grain single bevel Hill right wing with three five inch right wing feathers.  They all fly good with the only change being about a 1/4" of brace drop for the lighter spines. I am just going to go with the 50-55 cedars with 160 up front for now and a six inch brace.  This bow is quick, accurate, the grip works good in my hand and could easily become my primary bow, and it looks really cool. I have no batteries for the digital camera, I will get some.  Thank you James

I just had a feeling that bow was going to be something far more special than normal.  Looking forward to further info.

Raining here, but I need to go out next to assemble a quiver load of blunts and .38 cartridge net arrows for this bow.  That magical time is coming soon, when I pursue killer kottentails. I will need to practice my typical shot at the running killer kottentails. Half squat, eyes bulging out, teeth grinding, squeezing the rosin out of the riser wood, making that grunty sound that everyone can hear but me, and blasting arrows into the brush like a maniac.
