Title: Pics of my new bow.
Post by: JamesJamison on April 09, 2011, 11:37:00 PM
Finally got time to post a couple pics of my new bow. It was actually my Christmas gift, but it didn't get here until mid March.

Thunderstick III, and I've been shooting it as much as I can.  My first trad. bow, and I'm really enjoying it.

What kind of wood was used? I have a GN Bushbow on order, Osage limbs and cocobola riser. I think it will look similar to your bow.  :thumbsup:    :archer2:

It is a great shooter, if the bow could speak however, I doubt it would say the same thing about me.

The wood is osage, and diamond wood.

Thanks everyone.  I am consistantly shooting about a 4-5 inch group at 10 yards with 5 arrows, into a paper plate.  I am going to move back to 15 yards next week, and then back to 20.  My goal is to be consistant out to 30 yards by deer season this fall, and hopefully get a trad. bow kill.  I also plan to try and bowfish with it and stump shoot alot this summer to help get ready for hunting season this fall.
