RE: Your equipment era?
First bow I ever had was a Jennings Forked Lightning, shot fingerswith Aluminum arrows. I hate to admit this, but my target was a paper plate and two hay bails.[&:]I look back at those days now andam really glad I never had a shot at anything. In 1996 I bought a Jennings Machined Extreme XLR (41" axle to axle),used a release, but still shot aluminum arrows. Killed my first deer with this bow, and actually still have it today.
Today I shoot a Bowtech Allegiance and carbon arrows, I'mjust amazed how far technology has come in a short time frame.
