lol thats funny, and after reading it I don't know what to tell you. lolI remeber buying my first bow brand newwhen I was a sophmore inhigh school and my dad was not happy at all.My bow I was shooting then was used when I bought it but it still worked. I can remember my dad saying about what your saying to your son. That new bow killed my first bull elk, and several others in additon to a few deer. So when I wanted to buy another bow 6 years later, I think my dad was flat out pissed about it. Even today he doesn't understand, when I have new bow. I am 32 years old and I work part time in a bow shop and I have several new bows. But he is not a bowhunter so he doesn't understand. Oh well we just have to agree to disagree.
