Great to see all the first timers this year!!!!
I'll be shooting one of three bows:
Elk and Mule deer:
TallTines 55@28 w/600 grain lodge pole or carbon arrows and snuffers or VPA
Whitetail:
Primal Tech 3 piece longbow 64" 50ish @ 28" 550ish grain arrow
And last but not least my selfbow 44#@28" which I am bound and determined to take a whitetail with this fall.
Here is my setup.
It is a 60'' 53# at 28'' take down recurve made by Rembow, Robert Macllvane from Vermont.
I found a Selway bolt on quiver on the bay for $40 and threw on some woodland camo limb skins.
I am shooting Black Eagle Vintage arrows with 250gr Cutthroat broadheads.
I am new to archery in general and I have been shooting trad bows for a few months now. This is my first season hunting with a trad bow and my second archery season. I haven't shot my compound since bringing this bow home.
I am busting my butt trying to become proficient so start hunting black bear next month and deer in the fall.

Running a WF19 riser with Long SF Ultimate Pro ILF Limbs, for a 64" 45 lb bow. Selway slide on.
Initial grouping before tuning phase I was running Black Eagle X-impacts 500 spine with 250 gn up front.
But then tried the Gold Tip Pierce and like their outsert system better than the Black Eagles. So tuned those in and I find they group better than the Black Eagles. So final tune is Gold Tip Pierce 500 spine, 30.25" long, 250 gn up front. 520 gn total arrow weight. Broadhead will be a 250 gn RMS Cutthroat.

Scum bucket doesn't work anymore....the pics you are enjoying have been posted with IMGUR by our brothers that have taken the time to learn it....invest ten minutes and you'll be rollin'
:wavey:
Go to imgur, pick the bottom category for sharing, it is easy.
I'm a newer poster and have zero idea how to post pics yet so forgive me but I'm recovering from a surgery and lost strength. This year I'll be out initially with a Widow PSA-X made from Osage with copperhead on the limbs in 42lbs.
Least it's a cool bow.
For now though I'm looking forward to using the PSA-X

Goshawk by Chad Holm will be my primary bow, 44#@29" Dual shelf with Carbon Express arrows and ACE heads. Back up will be a Northern Mist Whisper dual shelf 45#@29" with cedar arrows and Rib-Tech heads. Both are whisper silent and ready to go....... :thumbsup:

Make sure you join us at the next hog hunt Fred. I'll let you shoot it as much as you want and won't even charge too much! There will be several of Randy's bows in attendance. They shoot better than they look and they are all gorgeous. Check out CRM's "New Bow" thread.
Haven't learned Imgur yet. Shooting only bow I own now, Toelke Super D 52@28. Probably shoot Legacy 2016's with 145gr Magnus Stingers or some older Magnus 2 blade same weight.
