BG,
thanks for all your help. I know my bow is a little dated but i am recently joined the army. I will be leaving for Basic on October 7 and our bow season here in Minnesota starts the second weekend in september. My wife couldnt justify me buying a new bow just for that short period of time. I will be sure to check out the link and get as much info as i can. any other advice you have for a begginer would be great.
thanx,
billy
