Well, I've had a bit of an itch to pick up a bow and arrow lately. Maybe it's the last few years of tons of co-workers killing deer or something. A few of them are bow hunters.
Anyways, I picked up a pair of compound bows today. For $100 (thanks craigslist) I picked up these:
A Jennings Back Lightning and an Xi Silverhawk XP.
The Jennings Back Lightning is currently set at a 50 pound, 26" draw.
The Silverhawk XP has a broken string. I'm thinking I'll have it re-stringed and set at at 60-65lb and 26 or 27" if possible.
The JBL at 26"/50lb is about what I can handle for now. I haven't played with a bow and arrow for 2-3 years, but have managed to be decently accurate for the first ~20 arrows I've put down range. Not impressive but not terrible by any means.
Not sure what the last bow I shot was, but it seemed easier. Anyways, a little something to have fun with for the next few months. Any one else play around with these things?
