I am in a fret about this right now!
Had a beloved Uncle pass away earlier this year. He was a hunting buddy of my Dad's (the older brother Dad never had sort of thing). When Uncle Roy couldn't hunt anymore he gave me his '68 Bear. I have had it for years. I got it out this spring in his memory and have been shooting it. I forgot how great this bow shoots!
I have it all pretty well set-up (44lbs.@28) and could head to the woods with it right now with confidence, BUT how would my DH Hunter feel about being left at home? How do I feel about leaving without it?
I think the best thing may be to alternate hunts (a joint custody type of deal). Or maybe hunt deer with the Bear, and hogs with the Hunter.
Either way I will be useing GT-EH with 150gr. Woodsmans/Snuffers. I shoot RW Hel. 5.5 inch fletches.
Then again, I haven't shot the RedWing Hunter in a while either...

I'll start the season with a 58 Kodiak to honor it's 50th Birthday 60" 52# Taperred cedars with Razorheads 530 gns. Hopefully I'll have a chance to fill a few antlerles tags.

As the season progresses and the Rut gets cranking, I'll switch to this one, A 60 Kodiak 60" 52#, Supercedars with 1960 Razorheads 660 gns
