Title: My Black Widow has Arrived!
Post by: Basinboy on April 06, 2011, 08:02:00 AM
The SA II in Gray Bark came in today! It's in excellent shape. Not a scratch on it. (that won't last long) I put beaver silencers on the new string and set the nock. I commenced to slinging arrows. My 5575's were weak so I dropped my point weight from 125 to 100gr but that wasn't enough. Arrows were 30" when I started. I started cutting them down a 1/2 inch at a time.
Tuned arrow is 27 1/2" with 5gr per inch weight tube inside, 100gr brass insert. Total weight is 570gr! And it slings them fast!
58" 56#@27"
Them hogs are in trouble now!
Thanks to fellow tradganger Matt Quick for selling me this bow.

I think that is the nicest colored greybark I have seen.  Can't wait for the Bear.  Those elk (and pigs)are in TROUBLE!!!!

I'm planning a DIY Elk hunt in Colorado and it will be on this trip for sure. Some whitetails will fall by it as well next season.
I would like to find some 48-50# limbs at my draw of 26" for target/stump shooting. My shoulder is not liking anything over 50# when I shoot a lot.

Will see how it does on a hog soon and I'll post it up.
