Man, I feel like I've been stood up. Where was the phone call man? I was looking forward to meeting you and going out for a brewsky, and this is what I get. I'd expect nothing else from the WAS! Good luck with the new machine, those are some shooting little bows. I need to save up a little to buy something new for myself. I already have the greenlight from the Misses, now I just need the funds!

[hobiecat]

LS, sorry brutha. Went down to BPS in Springfield and I just couldn't resist. We will get together and do some shootin. Ya'all get that membership at the Sportsman's club? Maybe we could do that walk thru. Hey, you goin to the Cookoff?

[Limbshot]

I can't make it to the cookoff, I have to work, unfortunately. I am renewing my membership at the sportsman's club though, and it would be a lot of fun to have you come down and shoot the walk through course, but I have to warn you, if my wife shoots, she will out shoot us both!!!

[hobiecat]

I ain't skeered!

Well, maybe just a little skeered.

[Rafe Hollister]

if my wife shoots, she will out shoot us both!!!

When she can keep the string from tearing up her forearm, that is.

[Limbshot]

Yeah, that definitely effects her arrow flight when she does that, but it has been awhile. LAtely, she has been a little to accurate. I don't know who taught her to shoot, but it must have been one bad SOB!

[buckeye]

How do you like that new Parker so far Hobie?

[hobiecat]

That is a son-uva-gun! It's whisper quiet, fast, and has virtually no hand shock what so ever.

I'm just amazed at the differences in bows. My old bow is a really nice 5yr old, mid-range priced bow (Fred Bear Pursuit). I'm not sure if it is the step up in price range or the newer technology, but there is a world of difference between it and my new bow.

Before I bought this one I shot the BowTech Patriot VFT, Matthews Outback, Parker Phoenix 34, and this one. All of them are great shooters. IMO the Parkers are hard to beat for the money. The Phoenix 34 actually was just a little smoother on the release (barely noticeable), but the 32 is a lil faster (315 fps IBO), lighter, and I like the shorter axle to axle. It was a tough choice, but all in all I think I made the right one.

So far, I definitely give it 2 thumbs up!
