Jim
I see you may have added another Big Five to that collection.

Jim Picarelli · October 11, 2015, 05:10:00 PM

I did...just find it hard to pass up a deal

Another great fall day shooting the new Berry Heritage! I didn't have the lace up grip on it yet and that's why I lost my dollar today (that's what I am sticking with)! Or maybe I need to adopt the gimpy, sway-backed, One Eyed shooting technique that the Boss uses... Anyhow I have really caught the fever with this little Heritage. I will give a full report when She's laced up! What a shooter.

No more old-school than shooting off of your hand!

'Another one bites the dust'. One of these days, I am going get some young whitetail blood on mine. The big boy is playing hard to find and the younger ones are testing my will power.

Hmmm, brown glass and osage riser. Could it be coming to Wyoming soon?

Whoopie ti yi yo, git along little dogies
You know that Wyoming will be your new home

JDBerry · October 12, 2015, 10:31:00 AM

Sorry Centaur, that's Jerrys Heritage. I am working on yours, She coming along very nice. ..OE

jwhitetail · October 12, 2015, 10:39:00 PM

I saw her today, Centaur... She is beautiful and almost there! The Heritage will be hunting the Wyoming hills very shortly.

Pavan... get yourself out here... and bring a dollar!

October 13, 2015, 02:03:00 AM

That's a long way to drive just to get you guys ticked at an old crip like me for taking your money. When I am shooting for the almighty dollar, I want at least half of the targets moving.

Green · October 13, 2015, 07:28:00 AM

Great pics Jerry, and looking forward to your opinions on this exceptional bow. James wasn't kidding when he said you wanted one exactly like mine. Y'all are going to pressure me to wrap my grip!

James your new shooting style can only be called "North Californian". Lol

Brianlocal3 · October 13, 2015, 07:57:00 AM

Green that's hilarious!!!!
Great pics Jerry, thanks for sharing! And I'm jealous that you get to shoot my James. I want to make it to WA one of these days and go run the course with you guys

Oops, Messing with my new computer I see that I messed up when I fixed a grammatical error. Anyway, after telling a cp shooting friend about your wagering with these bows, he challenged me with his new cp. I changed his challenge to a speed shooting contest for lunch. Their is a sucker born every minute.

Mudd · October 14, 2015, 09:02:00 AM

I would love to collect Mr Berry's autograph.....on his dollar...lol

Shooting off my knuckle actually feels more normal that shooting off of a shelf....(That may say something about my age)..lol

Thanks for sharing the photos.

God bless,Mudd

I shoot off my knuckle as well, the shelf tells me where to put it.
The one thing that I run into with no shelf bows is the feeling of the arrow when I am walking around with an arrow on the string. I know, terrible dangerous and all that, I don't do it when footing is in question. I am just used to having my index finger holding the arrow against something. Years ago I glued a leather wedge on my pig nut for that purpose.

jwhitetail · October 15, 2015, 10:58:00 PM

Well... guess its great to have the old interweb so at least all of us from far flung reaches can have some fun thinking about shooting together.

This little Heritage is a really addicting bow to shoot. For me, it shoots wonderfully and I really don't miss the shelf... until I have a lapse in shooting form. Then she will tell you - you messed up. That is to say, its a very sensitive bow. But very accurate and powerful. For me, it is really fun to keep plinking away off of the hand and I believe its going to really satisfy a bunch of folks that want that old school shooting feel. As for huntin, I have know doubt that it would be a great bow once you got your systems/habits down with a broadhead out front of your fist. to all that are receiving them, have fun and remember to cant that bow.

To windy to hunt here today. I thought that I would get some target work in. Couldn't hit hit the broadside of a fat steer at 20 yards, would have lost that dollar today. Maybe my beard is getting too long, a little kid asked his mom if I was Santa that came walking by. Maybe that put my concentration off, there were a lot of cars coming by and school buses. I kept wondering if they all were thinking,'Santa looks crabbier than his normal crabby.' I had to get serious and clean up my shooting basics again too get things back. No bow will completely forgive a plucked floating release and the varied draw length that comes with it. Up to late with the telescope tonight, see if I can find the Big D tomorrow afternoon.

Green · October 16, 2015, 06:41:00 AM

My Heritage is back in James hands for a quick weight reduction (shoulder) and he's going to do the wrapped grip, but with my 1/8" leather shelf in place. I don't trust my accuracy to my knuckle. Will post further pics once it returns home.

centaur · October 16, 2015, 06:51:00 AM

I'm looking forward to the arrival of my Heritage. It will get tested on deer and maybe another turkey when it gets here, if I can get the hang of it soon enough. Certainly I should have it figured out by the time the whitetails get amorous ideas.
Should be fun!
