It's OK too I guess. Way OK actually. I love those tips.

Do you get to hunt with it in Brazil or are you a target shooter?

Really nice looking bow. I love seeing the colors come out in the woods when clear is put on them

Elison · September 16, 2014, 10:19:00 AM

thanks guys!

Greg, hunt is forbidden here in Brazil. =[
If you get caught killing some savage animal, you will going to jail.

So, we only can be shooter target...
