Title: #17
Post by: pdk25 on July 03, 2020, 01:05:44 AM
Broke in the new toy tonight. My new @bigjimsbows Mountain Monarch was waiting for me when I got home from work today.  3 hours later my buddy Dave Sisamis tells me there are hogs at the feeder.  I stop working and run out with the new bow. 15 minutes later I have hog #17 for 2020 under my belt.

We don't have any in this end of MO and don't want any from what I hear!  :thumbsup:

If you value turkey eggs and foodplots, you probably will want to keep it that way.

What a beautiful bow.
I know those hogs are destructive as all get up but I sometimes wish we could get some of them to hunt in downstate NY.

Petrichor, I'm assuming you are referring to the bow and not the shooter  :biglaugh:  PDK25 is a super guy, but not much to look at!  :bigsmyl:
He keeps messaging me with pics of dead pigs knowing good and well that it makes me jealous... Oh well.

Way to go bud and a stellar season to be sure.

To be honest, I almost always pick out the materials that I want and try to have something different than others do.  I straight up copied the look/materials of this one from someone with great taste.

Thanks! Great look on that bow. How does it compare to beaver tail?
Title: Re: #17
Post by: pdk25 on July 05, 2020, 12:13:39 PM
Similar feel. Perhaps a little more gripping action.  So far I really like it

I think the shark looks good on the right bows and is likely to be extremely durable. I doubt it will replace beaver tails any time soon, but it is an alternative.
Looking for some elephant and giraffe hid now. I have elephant on a couple of my personal bows and love it.
