Got it on line for 100 bucks and I'm waiting on the mail to come. It's a 55lb draw Shakespeare Kaibob x-27.......I'll post picks when it gets here. Anyone know about this particular bow ?????

Good luck with it. You will have alot of fun shooting that older bow.

Really nice old bow. I believe Ernie Root was involved in their development. He knew what he was doing.

I shot a friend's Shakespeare Super Necedah, made in the 1960s, nice,  Shakespeare's have a rep. for being good bows.  There's a member who collects them, his site is Shakespearearchery.blogspot
Maddog Mountaineer 57# and Prairie Predator 52# Wow!, Samick Sage 35 - 60#,  I'm learning.

My bow finally came home, now I have to pick some arrows and broadheads. My measured draw length is 28" or 28 1/2" depending on my form so I'd be cutting down arrows some ?
I'd like to use a VPA Terminator 3 blade, not sure of what weight would work best. I'm not going to have heavy inserts so my tip itself will have to be 200+ to get my total weight upwards or mid 550grains, while having a good FOC. I would like to use carbon shafts with feathers though instead of wood or aluminum. My game will be whitetail, turkey and small game, maybe a coyote if one happens to walk by  :)
