Default My Pro-40 spot bow

I had an itch to scratch....so I went and scratched it

A big thanks to Black-Frog, who was kind enough to answer all my rookie target bow questions.

She is going to take some getting used to - The whole thing has just a strange feel to it. Shot her yesterday for the first time and managed a few 5x's but it will take a bit. I also managed to knock into for or five other shooters with the stab though.....like a bull in a China shop

Notice the rest....it doesn't drop away..........

I had to C&P properties to see your pics.

I see you picked a popular color for a spot bow. And of course, everyone needs some limbsavers when they shoot targets.

I had to do the same thing nub but I believe it was worth it.

Nice rig RA, but I had no idea you planned on getting into target archery not to mention buy a new bow. I like your rest selection in particular. I use the GKF premier series almost exclusively on my bows now...with one or two tinker sessions thrown in....

Yea - the itch has been brewing for some time. Throw in a few butt kickings at some local shoots from some target rigs and..........well, if you can't beet them Join them. The rest is real nice, solid and easily adjusted - perfect for what I want to do. Thanks for posting the pics.........don't know what the problem is.

All right!!

Another "spottie" in the making!

What sight bar did you end up getting? Isn't that a Tox?

A dot and a ring- how do you like that?

Your 60x game is in your future.....

...see, you can say that here and not get harrassed. I have seen on a few other forums where that is a bad word.

I have to tell you....seeing a target rig again has me sort of longing to shoot one. I gave it up a few years back as I became "too" competitive but it still has some of the same appeal to me.
