As mentioned in my other thread http://tradgang.com/noncgi/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=051631
My primary bow is out of commissin for a while. Well after the "the incident" I grabbed my back-up bow, an 86# @ 29.5" Jeffery royal recurve (that I haven't shot at anything but a carp in 2 years), took the AMS retriever reel off of it, and shot it at the bale a couple times. Hitting low, ok, consciously adjust for it, hitting dead nuts. After I finally got in the woods I had THE BIGGEST DOE I've ever seen broadside at 15 yards. Remember that conscious elevation adjustment I made on the bale, well, for me at least, conscious adjustments don't happen when I'm looking at a critter that I want to eat. so my arrow went right under her. She didn't move, just turned her head straight away from me, giving me a chance to nock another arrow and shoot under her again :banghead: . She's still standing in the same spot. I gave up at this point and stood up and said "YOU WIN!!! get the **** out of here!!!) My Jeffery is not a bad bow. I won many local 3-D shoots, and placed 3rd in the OBA with this bow before I got my Morrison. I just hadn't shot it for a LONG TIME with anything but a fiberglass fish arrow. If you ever have to hunt with your back_up you will wish you would have shot it more
