Title: How many different ways?
Post by: Mudd on January 06, 2011, 11:22:00 AM
How many different ways can you say "WOW!".

I just found one more....

I went to the PO and picked up my "new-to-me" bow.

I put it together as it is a two piece take down longbow. I got it strung up.

I was thinking to myself, "if this beauty shoots anywhere close the way it looks!" it's going to be awesome!!!

I know a lot of you have seen my target with the little Styrofoam Easter eggs,

Well I didn't hit it with my 1st arrow but at 15 yards it was touching the egg.

I was so awed that I stopped right there and came inside to tell the gang.

Thanks for reading my rant.

God bless, Mudd

Hey Mudd ... a real beauty!!  What are the cores made of?  Yew and boo?

Bob.

Looks like boo and carbon with juniper veneers under clear glass.

Post by: BigJim on January 06, 2011, 06:48:00 PM
Mudd- That's not carbon, it's magic!..... no really it is uniweft. Carbon doesn't have an affect in the core. only on the outside of the limbs. The rest of your assesment is accurate though. action boo cores and juniper veneers.

Glad you like it.

thanks, bigjim

Way to go Mudd!! Looks like we share mutual memberships in the Big Jim and the Bama clubs. That bow right there might be the one to put a real strain on your Hill Style Only streak. How Blessed are ya', with a Bama due any day too. Life is good my friend, Enjoy!    :thumbsup:

I think I am just getting in touch with my feminine side, which gives me prerogatives.

Maybe something like an 80/20 split between Hill/ Hill Style and R/D bows.

If I go that direction it takes the pressure off of me to move out a couple of bows I was having a tough time turning loose.

OK my bad!

But in my defense.......

Hi my name is Mudd and I'm a "bowaholic"!

God bless,Mudd
