Title: Ordered a 58in PCH and a 66in ACS
Post by: joevan125 on June 12, 2010, 09:53:00 AM
Guys i went through a divorce last year and was forced to sell a few of my bows, a ACS being one of them.

I ordered a 58in PCH at the Howard Hill Shoot and then when i got home i started second guessing myself about the length because i have a 30 in draw.

I had Roger send me a 58in Demo PCH and i shot over 100 arrows throught it and man what a bow. This PCH fits my style of shooting perfectly.

The specs on the PCH 58in low grip cocobolo riser with yew limbs skinned with copperheads.

The ACS is 66in 16in cocobolo riser low grip and the limbs will be eastern diamondback skinned by Bob Morrison.

Things are really looking up for me and i just had to have these 2 bows, both are really great shooting and should look incredible.

When my 41 yr old wife left me i thought i was going to die and a lot of you really helped me through a terrible time in my life. 42 yrs old and having to start life all over again.

Oh and i have to tell you that my 28 yr old girlfriend loves the outdoors and really likes these custom bows and plans on going on both my hunting trips this fall.lol

You have to do what makes you happy. Otherwise, what is the point of living life? Enjoy! If I were you, I'd order another bow!

Glad to hear you are doing well. A divorce can be a terrible thing to go through.

Remember these words of wisdom - One life, One wife! Ha!

The 58 incher will never out shoot the 66 incher and it sounds like the 28er is already outshooting the 41er.

Simple fact with a bow, but women can be different.

Bowmania you are dead on about the longer bow outshooting the shorter one, i just really wanted a short bow to fill all my hunting needs.

I go out of state on some hunts like Ohio and Ill. and these states just dont have as many trees as we do down here in Bama.

With that being said that PCH shoots absolutely amazing even though its 58 inches and i have a 30in draw, i was speechless.

The 66in ACS is a no brainer and i plan on using is at all the 3-D shoots i attend. With those eastern diamondback skins on the limbs im positive it will see some hunting action this fall.

All kidding aside guys that 58in PCH is one heck of a smooth bow and i have no doubt that some deer will fall while im hunting with it.

Would it be ethical for me to post a picture of my girlfriend holding one of my bows while wearing a bikini.  :thumbsup:

Sometimes we have to give up something to get something better.  The bows should be great also.  A woman who will share in or least support you in your passions is priceless.

It's always easier when you take a fall, to fall uphill.

kadbow i did find the money and i must say there are still some good people out there.

A few days ago i went to the bank and got $5,600 dollars out to pay a friend back who had loaned me the money when times were tuff for me.

A older gentleman found the money in the bushes 2 days later and i remember jumping over them instead of taking the sidewalk and thats when it must have fell out of my pocket.

I was very sick mentally for 2 days and then i got the call from the bank telling me someone had turned it in, it felt like a ton of bricks had been taken off my chest.

I got in touch with the older gentleman and offered him a reward but he wouldnt have none of that. Man you cant imagine what a relief it was to get that money back.  :pray:
