New Mohawk= 1st longbow buck

Day Dreamer · November 03, 2009, 10:50:00 PM

A big thank-you to Tradgang's Rob DiStefano, for his first hand knowledge of Mohawk's and carbons. Also, thanks to Master Bowyer Vince of Mohawk Bows for such a handsome, smooth longbow. After recieving my Mohawk during deer season and unfamiliar with tunning methods. I was either Hunting or Shooting countless arrows, thinking I had it down, then to miss a big'en last week. I sought the help from Rob and things came together. I then wanted to tag a deer, for the sake of my homestead, chores were piling up and Momma was get'en lonely, I had to tag an animal. So I said a prayer and this guy showed up this morning, picked a spot and the 400 Beaman Ics, 125 Montec, flew true, 50 yard blood trail. Words of advice, if you get a new bow don't let it be during hunting season, and make sure it's a Mohawk.
