I havent shot my recurve I years and I mean years. But over the last few weeks I gave the ol boy a face life and cleaned it up some. Whats amazing is that I still got it;D...so far I have been shooting at 10-20 yards and have been able to put 5 outa 6 in a eight inch circle. If I am able to to keep things consistant, I may take it hunting this year? Its an old bow..Black Hawk "bee" 66 inches, 40lbs @ 28in.

Thanks bowman..yes it sure does bring the fun back into archery after shooting competition so long. Hehe..the arrows Well that sorta is a story ;D I basically had lost all my arrows I had been practicing with over the last few week. SO... this fella on ebay was offering a dozen hand mades for 40 bucks. So I jumped on it after checkin all the prices of wood arrow from other companies. Anywho their not the best..but probably some where in the middle maybe. Good enough for me I know that. I'll try and post some close ups of them in a bit.

Yup sure am freedrules..this bow was actually my fathers. He had bought it back in the 50's while he was in the airforce. So it got some age on it...
