Yep, he went back to the darkside and bought a compound[

]. Funny thing is I traded my bow with a dealer in Minnesota. He ended up trading the bow back to my friend for 2 of his longbows!!!!!
Well that was the shortest time I owned a bow. TroynOH called to see if I would sell it and bingo... I shipped it off this afternoon. At least a diehard recurve hunter got it, and it' s a perfect draw weight for him. It shot smooth just not at the poundage I prefer. Still haven' t convinced this longbow shooter to make the switch
