Title: New recurve
Post by: Elements on March 25, 2013, 08:44:00 PM
Just received my Great Northern Super Ghost
54 lbs @ 28Inch with the Great Northern kickback adjustable strap on quiver.
Going back to traditional archery where I started
40 years ago. I shot recurves, longbows, compounds and crossbows over the years. I decided to return to hunting with a recurve.
First shot at the range at 20 metres was in the 9 ring, great bow to shoot.  I am now busy building six cedar arrows with five inch banana fetching. I will be placing two blade 125 grain Eskimos for deer hunting this year. I shot my first whitetail with the same arrow setup 30 years ago. Love the nostalgia of this process.
