I kinda wished i had not shot it!!  i didn't want to put it down.  LOL.  Gary, i think that bow is a lil heavy for you!  if you want ill keep flexing those limbs for you everyday!!  Whip, it was a sweet bow, i keep telling myself i'm done, I'm done, then things like this happen.  What do these bows sell for new?
