Soooooooooo, if this is your first bow purchase, did you steal the other ones?     :scared:      :scared:      :scared:    


Just kidding!

Nice stick.

Bisch,

basically.  I built my first bow from a bingham kit and then I did purchase a hoyt dorado(2nd hand) and then a guy traded me it for a Black Widow.  

No, I did not check the mental state of the trader, but I honestly did not care.  lol.

Joe you may have missed the post a while ago by this guy that lives about 3 hills over from me noting that he has a nice round dozen Kwyk Styks...he takes Jack hunting and has known him forever it seems...and he has a mean streak too...I asked him once if he would sell me one of his Kempf bows and he replied that he only has 16 so no...now that is rubbing it in...and you know you are welcome to come and shoot and hunt with us any time

I set out a while ago to reduce my herd of 40 bows...And I am finally down to 42

who would have guessed that USPS did not bring the bow to the house yesterday?  

Nothing new on shipping confirmation since the 17th, when it was in NJ.

Daniel... now you know why patience is a virtue! Tough not going nuts isn't it?

Look forward to your thoughts once you get it set up and shooting.

Good luck.

Dave..taking you up on that offer. I've been wanting to bowhunt Mulies or whitetails up there. It would be a great opportunity to visit Jack again and shoot some bows. I'm retiring next year and if all works out, could head up there next fall.

How was the bow sent...USPS or UPS? I always mailed out bows to customers USPS Priority Mail. Was there in one week. I know your excitement....it's like Xmas.

Joe, it was sent USPS priority insured.  No fault of the sender.  

I don't know whats going on with USPS lately but they have been late on several of my packages lately.  One of them imparticular had a 12 day lay over, literally.

A little to the right, but the arrows flew great!!



and a second round..

followed by 50 more rounds of 3, but y'all don't want to see all that...

That grip style is my favorite on the Kwyk Styks.
I have one that is similar, I think its cocobola.
You should like that bow.
