Title: The call came this morning *Pics Added*
Post by: ermont on April 16, 2012, 01:50:00 PM
New A&H 2 piece longbow is headed my way today or tomorrow. 60" 50#@28. Carbon grip. I can't wait.
Only got to shoot a few arrows out of her but they go ripping down range. Gonna chrono it against my Centaurs when my back quits complaining.

Congrats !  I remember when you were asking about the 2-piece. I'll be looking for pics when you get it. By the way, what riser wood did you go with?

I was going to go with Bocote but after I saw Randy Chamberlin's Grey actionwood I decided to go with that with dirty boo in the limbs. It will look very similar to his but mine has the carbon grip. 6 weeks. Can't beat it.

Yeah, I almost bought the grey actionwood 1-piece Larry had at K-Zoo.... but I think Killdeer got it while I was mulling it over in my brain  :D  

I ordered mine on February 2nd and recieved it March 10th.... you can't beat their delivery time.

The 2-piece they show on their website with the grey actionwood and full carbon grip looks awesome. You're gonna love it !

Unfortunately they ship UPS ground. So Friday is the day. I would have thought they would ship a $1400 bow Priority. Guess not.

I had Dan ship mine USPS Priority for that very reason.

My bow showed up on Friday. Unfortunately I jacked up my back installing our new swamp cooler so any pics or shooting will have to wait a few days.
When I was younger I always heard others talk about back problems now I know, if you don't have back problems, you just don't have them YET.

If the waiting wasn't bad enough. Good for the new Bow, heel up on the back so you can shoot her.

Thanks to all. The back is doing much better. I hope to set up my chrony this afternoon if the winds don't kick up and get some numbers. I'll keep you posted.
