Default Another toy........

Finally got here today. It's an 05' blackout blue regular apex. I have 70lb limbs on it now and the new 60lb limbs are on the way. I also have a gibblet string that will be a surprise, not sure what colors till they get here.

Anyhow, after shooting it a bit tonight I am impressed. It has a lot of mass weight and 65% letoff, but I will reserve further feedback until I have the string on it and tuned with 60lb limbs. I plan to shoot it a 60lbs with a 375 grain really skinny K&K Angel shaft. I am shooting in the nysaa star fita outdoor championship in July and this bow will be tuned and taped for out to 90 meters in the next week or so hopefully. Here are some pics. They really don't do the bow justice.

You really don't get paid in cash, do you. Must be tough working were the toys are.Have no idea what the bow is like but it does look like a serious rig.

Heh........actually I evenly traded some stuff I already had bought (another bow) for this oneand I already had all the accessories, so the only thing I had to buy was 60lb limbs, and a new string/cable setup.

Thanks guys, it should be a shooter I hope.
