Well I just got off the phone with Mike aka 'wingnut'.  I called to discuss options for a new bow.....and I guess you could say we got the details worked out!  I loved one of the risers he had on an instock bow, but the limbs were only 40# and I shoot 60+ pounds.  I made the mistake of telling him that if that bow were 20# heavier he wouldn't have to build me one.  He countered with "why don't I make a set of 60# limbs for that riser and we could have it to you in a couple weeks?"
I can't believe my pea brain never came up with that option (I've been drooling over that bow for about 3 weeks).  
Good news is....new orion at my door in 2 or 3 weeks
Bad news is.....not nearly as much time as I thought I'd have to tell my wife about it.
 :scared:    :bigsmyl:  

I'm so excited, nervous, happy I feel half out of my mind.....I better go fling some arrows

Don't I know it!  She gave me the goahead to start looking, but I'm not sure she meant buying right away!  Guess I'll have to 'play' stupid.LOL

Travis,
When you get as bad as some of us, you no longer have to worry about telling the Mrs..
As in my case... I have so many bows, she requires I keep most of them in a controlled environment storage facility. This works out great! I can buy a new bow, and then switch out one at the house with it. She just thinks it came out of storage, never gives it a second thought!
She just doesn't understand why I have to be shooting so many different bows, when she only has 2!    :thumbsup:

Well, I'm certainly not at that poin.....yet, but this is another step in the right direction!

Nothing wrong with benders....in moderation of course   :confused:    ;)
