Hey guys, I am indeed a happy camper! This bow really shoots well. When I got home from Russ' house I started to tune things up. The arrows in the pic are 2018 XX75s. At home I tried a few different spines. It likes my XX78 SuperSlams in 2016 the best. I set the brace height at 7" and placed the brass nock 3/8 up and it is shooing great. At Russ' I didn't think I would even need any kind of string silencer, however after raising the brace height it did get a bit noisier. I shot with field tips and BHs. I didn't think I'd be ready to go THIS FAST! I'm shooting it much better than my 56" recurve that I've been shooting for 2 years! I hope to get this bow bloody at the lease in a couple of weeks when I try to kill a pig!
Thanks again Russ! Great job!
