Dont have to shoot one of the new rockets. My oneida eagle will kill, just as easily as a new rocket. Not trying to start anything but too many hunters are into the fast shooting bows. They havent had to shoot the old bows from years gone by. Makes a person appreciate it more. I learned shooting fingers and not a release. And yes I have shot the recurves and Ive made a few self bows from a piece of wood. Ive carved it myself and tillered it. How many can say that?Now that we talk about the rocket bows, how many can say the can draw the bow straight back and not do the skyward pull cause they cant pull it backcause they are pulling to much poundage? Like I said not trying to start anything. Thats my opinion...
