Hi All,

 

I shoot a Fred Bear Kodiak magnum @ 65lbs at  28inch draw with fingers.

 

Has all the punch I need on regular game in Australia.

 

All the best,

 

Jim

Hey guys what do you do with your old gear..... looking for a "ladies bow" about 40 to 50 lbs pull. Recurve too stiff for her...... lower end compound okay. Also looking to "recycle" other gear for a program at my church.

I shoot a Jennings J.D. Special (Limited Edition). It's a bow that was commissioned by the former owner of Arrowhead Archery over on Hwy 92 in Seffner, Florida. I believe he only had 500 made and was lucky enough to pick up one. I almost purchased a PSE Diablo last year but I love this bow so much I left the PSE on the rack. I do need to make some modifications to it like: new sight (I like the red dot optical I've been seeing on TV recently) and a New rest (I'm debating between a whisker biscuit or a drop down arrow rest).

go with a Golden Premier or the 3-D Rover both are great rests and will last you many , many years .... they are also easy to tune , (Micro adjust) and stay put so you never have to mess with them again unless you change shafts

I really love those whiskerbiscuits.Can pull back your bow watching the deer instead of your bow making sure the arrow don't fall off.:D

Mr. Tanner,

Are the Golden Premier or the 3-D Rover drop away arrow rests? The very reason Brucet mentioned about the Whisker Buscuit is the very reason I was thnking about going with it.

Thanks

nope they sure arent they are a 2 prong rest that is on a spring basiclly it does drop down but springs right back... I like them as i never have a problem with them... I used to shoot the whisker biscuit when it first came out years ago and i did ALOT of shooting, and it just boogerd up my fletchings I was constantly refletching arrows and I could never get anything to stay tight on it even with locktight on the threads so I ditched it ... maybe the new ones are better made but once i get a sour taste in my mouth Im turned away;)

I love to shoot my bow. I can shoot my rifle all day and love it too, but there is nothing like stalking with a bow. You have to be on your game!
