Pulled these arrows outta my front door. Jnichols loaded them up with smokes and shot them this way, like Bo and Luke Duke with a stick of TnT. BAM!

Quick list..

La Herencia Cubana Oscuro fuerte -- never had

5 Vegas AAA ---> been wanting to try

Undercrown Belicoso -- Boo Yeah!

Camacho torpedo -- gold and black band -- never had

Padilla 68 -- good stuff

And a one off bow made by jnichols !!!!! Absolutely beautiful !

I sent a msg after seeing the bow he sent Numi. I wanted to know if he made them to sell as I have been wanting a long bow for a while now. NOPE! He wouldn't sell me one, but he would GIVE me one. Still in awe over this. That sucker is about as long as 3 of my compounds end to end. I got some learning to do.

I wish we could post multiple pics, this photo does NOT, do this bow justice.

Thanks again!!!!1.jpg

It's really hard to take pictures of the bows, You did about as well as I have ever done! 👍 Takes about 3 pictures to get it all in. Have you strung it up yet?

I haven't strung it yet, been real busy to make it to Bass Pro to get one of them there stringing tools. Plus the Pats played yesterday and Bass Pro is in the same complex so I stayed away. Hopefully later tonight I can make a ride over to BP and get the stuff I need.

And you bet, hyodude, it sure is a world class hit.

Get one with leather cups on each end! Not the ones with the rubber piece on the one end

I used to just put one end in the arch of my foot grab the handle with my right hand and then grab the string and slide the palm of my hand up the back of the bow( The stained Bamboo part ) till I got it to catch still way easier so get the correct stringer. Does your buddy have one?

No he doesn't. His fiberglass bow is a 50 pounder and he uses the method you just described. And his fiberglass bow doesn't seem to be nearly as stiff as this wood bow.

😒 You were the one who told me to get one of them. Now I gotta try it your way, not having to buy something else is a good thing!

Is it just as easy to un-string the bow with this method?

Yep Most people don't recommend it though as you can twist a limb if you don't know what your doing

That's a class hit right there! I'm an avid bowhunter I've had several recurves but never a long bow. Just looking at the details of the grip from the pic, you can tell that's some fine work there brother

Matter of fact, I'm sitting in my stand right now waiting on a hawg to walk by me lol

^^^ Thanks man, lets see it's been 20 minutes, the bow either blew up or he has a hernia now

Out of the shower, and the leftover calzone has been devoured. Looks like BP will be one of my stops tonight. I would rather not screw this bow up, she is soooooooo purdy. 👍

Chit!!! I hope sitting through this thunderstorm that just went by brings me some luck! Otherwise I might not just be irritated. I'm soaked from head to toe b/c I forgot my ponco. [ram27bat]

We got about 20 drops this morning story of here as we just miss the rains either to the north or south of us, all summer long! Just enough to get the vehicles all spotted up! Grrr.

BP didn't have any in stock, and the local archery shop is closed on Mondays. 😣
