Sorry to hear this!  If you need a loaner bow, let me know; we have similar bow interests and shoot similar specs.  Let me know if I can help.  Hang in there Al!

Thanks guys for your replies and PMs. I still have my bows as they are locked away inside so for that I am lucky.

This is the second time I've been robbed in a month and a 1/2. Last time they come in and took my very expanse mountain bike that I almost live on on my days off ( I ride everywhere for fitness etc) and this time they've come back for more. I have made a police report and I'll go and see if anything has been handed in today, also helps when your partner is an ex police woman of 15 years so she has her friends looking into the area as well.

I can't even list what was in those two boxes guys as like us all, we collect items over the years when we chop and change. What I'm really annoyed at is Danny sent me some Extreme BHs that I was planning to use, not to mention a dozen Tuffheads, arrow scales... Just things like that that cost $$ over time... All to be stolen by someone whom I'm 99% sure won't know what 1/2 the stuff is and it would take hundreds if not thousands of dollars to set up again....

I know how you feel. They stole my Z-71 about a month ago, but I looked for it all the next day, and found it just before dark. Lost a knife, hatchet, tarps, ropes, jumper cables, tools, cooler, shovel, garden rake, pick axe, camo rain coat, not to mention I had to buy and replace the steering colume.

X4 on a list.

We should be able to get you re-outfitted in no time. Please do not let pride get in the way of letting us know what you need! I would really like to be able to help you get what you need.

And as far as the thieves, well all I can say is, Karma is a B!+ch. They will surely get what's coming to them!

I know that's a frustrating thing to have happen. Just remember people like that ALWAYS get theirs, it WILL come back to them.

That's the hell of it right there. I don't know how things are in your part of the world, but around here the pill heads will steal anything that isn't nailed down. And if they can steal your hammer to pull the nails out, they will take everything...including the hammer. Then they sell it or pawn it for next to nothing, having no idea what it is or what it's really worth, just to get a fix. It's really sad.

I'd be glad to give you anything I can spare that you may need to get by. I've got a bunch of mix and match broadheads that I'm not using. Got a few extra strings that don't fit any bows I have anymore.

I hope and pray, they catch the lowlife s.o.b. that took your stuff.

As one Aussie to another - really sorry to hear that Al.  I know the feeling well and it is terrible.  We went to Cambodia at Xmas, and got an email from the Kalgoorlie police.  I had to come back early and cut our holiday short.  The Swine trashed the whole house and they took thousands of dollars of goods.   I am only now finding stuff I did not realise I had lost.   They stole my beautiful Pittsley Predator bow and my bow box with over 20yrs of strings and b/d's, arrow making stuff etc.

You may have to just slowly replace stuff like I am doing.   It seems too overwhelming to do it all at once.  Good luck with it all.

Sorry to hear this Al.  I have random items in my box I can send your way if you need.  

Just send me a  pm.

I hope your local police can recover some of what is lost and catch the crook.
Relax,

You'll live longer!
