Title: New Primal Tech/Work of art
Post by: GCook on August 20, 2022, 06:49:59 PM
A while back I dropped a deposit on another Primal Tech bow. My plan was to get a lower draw weight model that closely matches my hunting weight bow so I could handle shooting all day on the 3D range. Granted, my 50lb three piece and 55lb two piece were up to it but I was not always after a couple of rounds. Especially taxing were the bigger shoots with more targets. So Randy, being the understanding sort, agreed to make me one more.

Now I'll be honest, I really love the beauty of my first one and really didn't see making another that looked as good or if that were even possible . . . However Randy was given complete artistic license over this one just as the last one. For two reasons. One, I'm as ignorant about woods as an average rock. No clue, no care, no preference. I care about two things. Does it shoot where I point it and is it quiet and shockless when I shoot it. Basically, in my mind, the way of the arrow is about the shooter. The beauty of the bow is all on the bowyer. If I can't shoot his bow can still shine. But if both work . . .

So late last month I get word he is starting on this bow. And I'm not gonna lie, I had some anxiety about it. I've got a lot I'm preparing for right now. First overseas hunting trip and right after I get back a quick turnaround for a week long hunt in central Missouri. Then hunting season is right there in my face back here at home . . . So basically no time to learn a new bow, tune new arrows, enjoy her the way she deserves.

So I get the call to meet, and with no previews to tell me what she looks like, he meets me at On Target in Canton and I finally get to see her. And honestly I truly don't deserve another work of art like this.

That said very few shots taken, arrows a bit stiffer than what she likes, but it has enough zip at 42lbs that I have to hold eight inches low at 16 yards with 600 grain wood arrows.
