The 101st has landed...yeah I'm not original*PICS ADDED*
Well I just came home, opened the box, and there she was. My LH 101st. Immediately ran down stairs, grabbed my release...drew it back...NO PAIN like I was worried about in my left arm. Forgot just how smooth this baby is...well I'm off to the gym...pictures later to follow...I'll leave my man card until I return due to not having pictures[8D]

LOL, I dunno Germ, this thing is mighty tempting now...

Wow, that must be some draw cycle if you drew it back once and decided you need to hit the gym.
HAHA! That was great. It's because of my daily workouts that I have the guns to pull it back[8D]

did you pay more for LH? [:-]
Bought it second hand. 50 shots total=me paying ~$220 less than retail.
Now, on to the pics:
And here's my drawing it back for one of the first times ever left handed. The DL is too long (I knew that) and will need new mods, but I just wanted to get a feel for it.
My impressions:
The larger ATA was a welcomed change in balance and overall feel in my hands. The grip on this bow makes my CR334 feel like 2x4 (and I always liked my grip on the Ross). The invelvet finish is top notch and really sets the bow off. This bow just generally overall FEELS better in my hands than any bow I've had yet. I drew the bow back several times to see how it felt, and honestly...left handed DOES NOT feel awkward to me at all. The ONLY thing that was awkward was nocking an arrow (yeah I look like an idiot trying to pretzel my arms every which way to get it to work[8D]). I had strained my arm about two weeks ago and tried drawing back my CR334 left handed and I couldn't because of the pain. My Ross is set at 65# and the 101 is 60# so the 5# must have made a HUGE difference, because I felt great today. I may just get the mods put in, get it setup, and then go from there.

Sweet!! Once that draw length is correct it will pull even easier.I am really liking both my Airbornes. It will be a tough choice when one stays home while the other goes hunting. I too like the A to A on them and they both shoot with a lot of authority.

Looks good I guess you will not be able to blame your shooting on your eye any more. [8D]
OUCH! Haha, but seriously...now I'll have to come up with some other excuse[&:][8D] Thanks, though, it does eerily feel very comfortable left handed.

Yeah, if it shoots even remotely close to Rob's 82nd, it's gonna do just fine. Oh and btw, I ordered a LH limbdriver from you last week...props for the quick shipping! Had it in 2 days!
