Another new bow ordered at Kalamazoo Expo

Well I did it again, I swore that I wouldn't order a new bow at the expo this year after ordering a new Great Northern Critter Gitter and a Hill country Wildcat hybrid in camo last year. I made the mistake of spending some time talking with Ron King of Fox archery and shooting his Breed traditional style recurve. I love it and ordered one with juniper vaneers, cocobolo and bacote riser with sheep horn limb tips. The bow will be 50# @27" 58" amo. Can't wait!!

Congrats, you can never have enough bows and life is short, or at least that is what I tell myself.

I hope that you love it!!!

Thanks Guys! I'm going back tomorrow to shoot as many bows as I can. I plan to report on my findings by rating some of the bows. There are a ton of bowyers there and over the three days, it is possible to shoot one from each company. Two days down and I am more than halfway through.

G. Fred has more inventory than ever this year, I would say at least twice as much but probably more. The shurpa vests are awesome. I bought a wool vest with a hood in the improved evening stand brown/green pattern. Fred also has a ton of knives, sheaths and is now selling his hunting seats and some scent free laundry soap (powder) for your hunting wools and clothes. There is so much to see and do that I feel sorry for those that only go for one day. I live 20 miles east of Kalamazoo so I go everyday.
