Leatherneck, "need"....  :laughing:    :laughing:    :laughing:  That has never been a factor for me!!!  Most of us have way more bows than we need.  It is the one vice I allow myself to indulge...and all with my wife's blessings if you can believe that.

Ken,
You'll enjoy your Shelton.I have had a Shelton (54# @ 28, 66"long temp.'boo limbs with clear glass) for about 5 years and lovin' it.

Got a green glass, temp.'boo limbs takedown (56lb. @28 by 66" )coming early in April.

Been using Sitka Spruce arrows (55-60# spine, with 145-160 grain FT's and B'hds) and  occasionaly GT's blems (cause they're cheap and more expendable then my woodies)

Good shootin' to ya!

3under, the green glass is special...real classy.

You will love Shelton. The bow will be perfect when you get it, Steve's craftsmanship and attention to detail are top notch. When I first took mine to a 3d shoot everyone just got quiet when I shot, they could not get over how quiet the Shelton was. I had offers on the bow. Here are a few Northern Mists, all shooters that were easy to tune and hit where I am looking. The Shelton is on the right next to the Huron and Whisper...
