Title: 1 week down, Lifetime to go...
Post by: Gump21Bravo on May 08, 2012, 08:36:00 PM
Been shooting for a solid week now with my 60" Deathwish longbow from Steve Welte and honestly cannot get to the range enough to shoot. I can honestly say I wake up thinking form and go to sleep thinking form. I see targets in my dreams, I see the arrows sticking out of the target while listening to my professors in school.

I am officially hooked...now time to work on my form and iron that out then time for a good old fashioned time out in the woods looking for some true fast food..

Thanks to those who have helped and to those who will help....

Welcome aboard. I am a Hill bow fanatic, but I do have a Deathwish that is mighty fine.I think you will enjoy it a long time.

Thanks to everyone...

To answer the questions that some of you asked..

BrianLocal3......Left the military in 2009 and could not think of another screen name so I went with old faithful that I have used on other things never went to the school but would have in a split second.

To those with Steve's bows....I could not be happier with her. Real nice bow beautiful, sleek, and downright arrow slinger.

Sequoia... I am attending DeVry university majoring in Electronic engineering.

Thank you for the service. I hear the small unit leadership training at Sapper school was phenomenal.  Also, the electronic engineering is very interesting. I myself studied industrial electronics and industrial electricity. Look into Helmets to Hardhats if your interested in trade work. They got me on too te elevator constructors and I could not be happier. Good luck brother.
