    I think it would be interesting to try it out. Follow through would be key in maintaining any kind of accuracy or repeatability. As far as forgiveness goes I don't think there would be much if any to speak of. The one thing I did see that I wasn't so hot over was the 7" brace height. All that said it is a cute little bow.

    I've shot twice this week and will most likely shoot this weekend on both days.
    Did you guys see the Hi-tech bow prices in that other thread. the one was $1248. sheeeesh.

    I shot last Sunday. Shot ok for only my second 3D, but I lost 1 arrow and busted two more. [V] I also noticed that my little insert screw up ruined two more arrows, they cracked, so I am now down to only 2 arrows left. [V] Hoping to have some money for new ones soon.

    Been shooting about every other day {weather permiting} since I got my new bow. Working my arms into shape slowly. I start getting fatigue after about 4 or 5 rounds of 6 arrows.

    Haven't been shooting enough. I did stick my new Glendel Buck and McKenzie Gobbling Turkey targets in the treeline last night and shot a few. I really like the Glendel Buck target. I think I shoot better at 3D targets than bags, blocks, paper, etc.

    Anybody else think they shoot better at animal shaped targets vs standard targets?

    Yes! I bought a "Delta"? buck and have noticed that I have improved a little. I ruined the fletch on three of my new gold tips on my old bag-target,I'ts strictly for the kids to practice with for now!

    I don't know I shot my round and had to get out of there to go to the festival in town. Upon leaving the festival yesterday my father called to inform me of his latest purchase a .308 bull barrel, me being the way I am I immediately drove to the gun shop and purchased a .300 win mag with a 4-16 x 50 scope. My family is funny like that. All in all yesterday was a little interesting.

    I had a Savage .300 win mag, damn near kicks as hard as my .50.

    That's a Chinese rifle isn't it? Don't believe I've ever seen one before.
