2005 reflex buckskin
set at 62 pounds
trophy taker drop away
vital bow gear three pin

2009 bear done deal
set at 62 pounds
took the gear off it as it was for sale

2010 hoyt turbo hawk
set at 62 pounds
quick tune drop away rest
not even sure what three pin sight I have on it.

I think I have the reflex sold to a young man who is very excited to step up a knotch with his equipment.

that will keep me at 2 bows.

I would like to get a nice recurve and will soon.

I hunt with a pro-line from the early 1990's. :lol: 53pound draw doesn't seem to be too much let off but its light enough! Bohning quiver, cheap cobra sight (traded a value meal at culvers for it to my buddy), whitetail hunter carbon arrows from gander mtn but broke too many so I'm back to shooting aluminum easton game getters. Seem to fly just as well. Oh and the rest-one of those plastic black tabs that is glued to the bow.

If by reading this post you couldn't have guessed I'm a broke college kid I'll put it out there for you. I had some old motocross gear and traded it for this bow and haven't been able to afford an upgrade. I get clean pass throughs almost always but the bow is so loud that generally the shots are far from desireable. I am hoping to buy myself a Fred Bear Charge from gander with the full package after christmas. Looks like I won't be buying books next semester :)

the shots aren't desireable because the bow is so loud, and slow, that by the time the arrow gets to the deer they have avoided or nearly avoided the arrow losing only a few pieces of hair in the ordeal.

I hunt with a Martin X-2oo recurve.

I would like to purchase a new trad bow this year after I have shot as many as I can. I want my next trad bow to just feel right in my hand. I am using the recurve I bought for my father 7-8 years ago but he never used it so I started using it this year.
