Intro'd a friend to X-bows

Hi folks,

Been off-planet for a while, so I'm catching up on all your valuable posts and insights.

Had a friend and his wife over this past weekend and they wanted to try my Vortex. She had never shot anything, and was aprehensive. I showed her it didn't kick, sting, bite or steal her identity.

She was amazed at how fast it shot. She couldn't follow the arrow's flight when I or her husband shot it. Finally stood next to me and saw how it shot!!

My buddy noted that his birthday was coming up (like NEXT April), but he'd like something like that now.

Damn, these things are addictive.

Dave, you may be getting a call from him!!

PS. that Hawke scope is a wonderful piece of technology - must have been designed specifically for my setup

"Damn, these things are addictive."

I prefer to think of it as a sickness...as in "I know we really cant afford it Honey, but I just could not resist"

Can't be a sickness, that would take more than 6

Great way to put it!

Good luck with yours and hope your friends also get theirs.

Hawke scopes are great!
