What a great way to celebrate Thanksgiving!

Congrats on a fine buck, Vince! You are really getting it done this season.

I agree, Vince. Whatever we call them, the deflex/reflex design makes a great hunting bow.

oooo, shed - dat's a nice one!

I absolutely love this design in a bow. I have a new Dan Toelke Super D it is a great shooter. I have always had a preference for this bow design, they are plenty quick, smooth and are usually shooters and they look great to boot.

I wish I could get some pictures up. I have had too many of these to list and wish I had some back. I have one that will be leaving soon to help someone else just like I was helped by a special individual. Good hunting and God Bless.

I have to thank Mark for posting my Fox Triple Crown back on the 6th page of this thread, saved me the trouble of trying to post it. I also have two Fox traditional longbows which have the same D-shape when strung. Great shooting bows and Ron and Debbie are great to work with.
