Title: New to me bow
Post by: ronp on January 23, 2008, 04:24:00 PM
Hi All,
This is my first attempt at posting a pic so please bear with me.  Here is my new-to-me Fedora Stalker that I purchased from Seeking Trad Deer down in PA.  This bow is COOL!

OK, that worked!  I had to wait a few days to string it up because my old stringer wouldn't work (too big).  3Rivers quickly sent me a new stringer a couple days later so, even though it was about dark, I had to give it a try... I set the brace at about 7.5", the nock point at about 1/4" high, scrounged up 6 arrows of absolutely various carbon, aluminum and ceder shafts of various spine/weight/length/point size and let them fly.  If this pic works, this is my second set of six attempts with the 6 random arrows at 16 yards...after about 3 minutes practice:

I had one flier and the other five grouped well. All 6 arrows appeared to fly quite well.  Amazing.  Looks like this little 52" recurve is a keeper and no, Mike, you cannot have your Stalker back! Thank you - ronp
