Mine will be here tomorrow. My Grandpa lives about 30 minutes from Nixa and he picked mine up for me today and is bringing it to me in the morning.
I guess neither one of us will get any sleep tonight or the next couple of nights for you.

Possibly better this weekend than next.

Yea, definitely better this weekend than next, lol. The wait hasn't really been that bad this time. Acquired a Bob Lee right after I ordered the PCH and it has done a good job keeping me occupied. It's actually going back to BL for a refinish, when the Widow arrives.

maybe it would help the time go buy if the put  "How to shoot better than ever at the moment of truth.."  but then that is two men shooting B/Ws maybe it would not help.

Just got it today. This will be my hunting bow for this year and provably from now on. It's 56" and 55@28. I draw 28.5" and am loving this bow. It definitely wants a stiffer arrow as well, don't think my AD Trad Lites HammerHeads are gonna cut it. This bow shoots my AD Trad HammerHeads with 200gr field points, perfectly.

I like the bow, but tell me what Thunderhorn Quiver that is.  I like the  looks of that set up.

Post by: Sean B on June 30, 2014, 06:05:00 PM
Nice, you'll be happy with it.  The PCH is my all time favorite shooting Widow.  Good Luck with it
Title: Re: My new Black Widow PCH is here (w/ pics)
Post by: PaulDeadringer29 on June 30, 2014, 06:29:00 PM
Thanks. The quiver is a Thunderhorn Small Fry. It is the Lynx model and TH only offers it as a strap on quiver. So I called and talked to them and asked if Duane would make it so I could use my quiver bushings. I also asked to have a longer bottom bracket/arm so my arrows would be setback at the fletching end. Turned out great.
Title: Re: My new Black Widow PCH is here (w/ pics)
Post by: PaulDeadringer29 on June 30, 2014, 06:31:00 PM
Actually, the top bracket/arm is shorter allowing the setback feature.

I REALLY like that Autumn Oak with no red...I'm planning on a PA next spring, and I may have found my woods.

Post by: Gooserbat on June 30, 2014, 06:49:00 PM
I thought it was a Lynx,  MY fave quiver, but I had never seen one with the side mount feature.  I might have to ask about getting one for myself.

Paul,
Nice bow. I have one like it. Or had I should say. The riser  on mine was really nice looking but it got a hairline stress crack in the wood. BW replaced it with but used red when the made the replacement. Maybe an oversight or maybe they it had something to do with the laminations required. They added extra reinforcement laminations because I draw mine to 60lb+@31.5" I'm wondering, do you have a weighted insert in your AD Trads or just the aluminum insert? I never used the hammerheads. What is the spine like on those? compared to the spine on the regular AD trade?
Thanks,
Tedd

Good looking bow!
Title: Re: My new Black Widow PCH is here (w/ pics)
Post by: Tedd on June 30, 2014, 08:29:00 PM
I should add that BW jumped right on it and got me a new riser made right away.

JT, the grip is the standard grip. I like a narrow, med/high grip and the standard is my favorite grip on any bow yet.

Tedd,  on my AD's I have the aluminum insert in them (Gary Hall made these up for me). I think the HammerHeads Trads are spined the same as the regular Trads, except the HammerHeads have more weight up front and supposed to be a little more durable. Same with the HH Trad Lites and Trad Lites.
