Default RE: Try cheap....

Hey, I hunt with a Jennings Airmaster. Speedmaster, it's similar to your bow.

It's about 8 years old now. It's survived a dry-fire and a 20-foot freefall from the treestand, and escaped both episodes unscathed. For an older bow, it clocks in fairlyfast at 285 set at about 77#. The deer seem to like it. I think it stickered for about $300, whichwas a little pricy for a stick and string at the time. Now, buying a bow seems to require some refinancing of the mortgage or getting a lien against something, so I'm guessing that the Jennings will continue to be the bow-of-choice for the foreseeable future.

Troy - It won't be long before the young man in that picture is bringing in sheds of his own... BUT he'll need to pack a lunch to keep up with his old man.
Your'06 shed collectionseems to be going pretty well. My shed hunting is exactly that... HUNTING - not FINDING. I wandered through the hills for a couple hours again on Sunday and found nothing but a half-chewed-up bear skull, which I left behind. I didn't feel like driving to where I'd planned on going, so I was stuck going local.
