Well, I got to thinking (You guys know how expensive thinking can get). There is no way I will be able to be good enough to use my recurve bow this year. As a matter of fact, I don't even have a powerful enough recurve. I have decided to buy another compound bow. The Bowtech Allegiance comes to mind. I had to convince my parents to let me get a new bow. I have already bought three in the last year. I told them that I needed a little faster shooting compound bow. Mine shoots at about 210 fps. I told them that if I misjudged the yardade by a few yards I would hit low. This would cause the wounded deer to run. I hunt near a highway so it would most certainly end up there. A car would hit the deer and the results would be fatal. The person in the car would be a janitor that worked in the White House (Yes, in Mississippi). The janitor would not be able to work that night since he would be in the hospital. There would be a spill in the White House by the janitors friend. This occured because the friend was distracted while talking on his cell phone with the janitor. There would be no janitor to clean up the spill. The President would slip on the spill and hit his head. This would cause him to stay at the hospital over night. The Vice-President will be in the hospital with the president. Someone else would have to take the place of the President. That someone would be showing the new guy how things run and he will slip on the spill. He would hit a button that signals a nuclear missle to be fired. They would fire it and it would hit Iraq's missile archive (we all know they have one). This in turn would blow up the world. If I had a faster shooting bow none of this would have happened. This is what I told my parents. They are letting me get a new bow. You don't need to thank me. Well ok, ok, your welcome!

Hey ill give that to ya thats a pretty convincing story. LOL[8D]

Good for you. The newer bows are certainly better in my opinion. However, I would imagine archers have killed a lot of game with less speed than you have now. I started out with a Proline that probably didn't shoot much over 200 but I practiced, practiced, practiced and I am sure I was better with it than my newer bow. I wished I could have kept it but needed the money. Yes, it was heavier, slower, longer. But it fit me well and I would have no problem hunting with it now. There are a lot of hunters out there shooting older equipment and doing a fine job. Hope you get what you are looking for.

Did I just waste a minute of my life reading that???

Have fun with your new bow.

How come?

That's a good one Zak! now I ought to try that on my wife LOL. Glad to see you back.

Have you ever thought about working in national security? You could sell the next terrorism threat to the American people with G.W. and Condie Rice.

I'm not sure how or why it worked but congrats on the new bow. I'm going to have to try out the Alligence. It has been making some waves lately.

wish my dad would stop bein a ***** and pay child support that way i dont need to come up with the money to buy my bow stuff

Zac, you have quite an imagination! Go ahead, put your training wheels back on like the rest of us! BTW, congrats on getting another bow.

You guys are more than likely to use my "story". I doubt I will be good enough to shoot my recurve. I just don't have the time to practice like I used to. I know I can get good groups fast with a compound. I am not dropping a recurve. Blah Blah Blah. Heck, I'm just making all of this up. I want to get a new compound. They are just too fun! Stop trying to make me go back there. I am still going to practice with my recurve and hope to take some deer with it. I would just like a new bow.
