WELL,I was leaving work today when my boss stepped out of a trailor he was cleaning out with a bow.It was an old Jennings Forked Lightning.I looked at it and said I used to have one of those and then he said it is yours,take it.


I used to work with my boss several years ago and he was trying to get his kids involved in archery and I had given him my old youth bow for them to have.I had completely forgotten about it.(this was actually my FIRST compound)


This old bow is atleast 25 years old and when I got home,I just had to shoot it.So I reserved the the center serving,tied on a loop,adjusted the draw out as far as it would goand put on an NAP rest I had laying around,set everything to center and shot bullet holes with it.


Of course with this old bow the riser isn't cleared out so I set it to center shot and shot it with feathers but I was amazed it still shot great.No wonder the old Jennings were considered the best at the time.Very little handshock and it was set at 50#'s.


I think my 14 year old nephew might be using it this deer season if it fits him.
