Title: new bow, dirty turkey and a dog day afternoon!!
Post by: adkmountainken on June 14, 2009, 11:08:00 AM
first let me say THANK YOU to Mike (Mcgroundhunter) for his effort in a deal that sent a Shrew my way!!!! also a big thank you to Jamie for arrows and his part to help me get this bow, as well as to Chris for picking it up! all three guys went above and beyond to help me get this bow! i am WAAAAAAAY more then happy with this bow, an absolute beauty that smokes an arrow and shoots smoother then i would have thought a short bow could. not to many bows i can pick up and shoot but i shoot this one pretty good!

Now right after the close of turkey season a certain gobbler moved in to the field behind my house and scolds me EVERY day!!! par for the course today, every time and arrow smacked the target the ole dirty bird ran his mouth!!!

Looks like you had a good time my friend. That ole deer target looks like she needs to be put out too pasture. If you have to put her back together after every shot, going to the gym would be a waste of time. That is a work out in its self!   :biglaugh:    :biglaugh:

the deer taget went up in smoke shortly after the last shot. a tribute to the archery gods!
