Finally, got to throw some arrows with the Big River recurve, this is the latest bow to be dusted off.  I was pleasantly surprised with the performance of this 65#+ bow with some 675 grain arrows.

I've got two bows I bought, tuned, shot a bit, then retired them. Both Blackwidow PLX take-downs, one 65lb and the other 55lb.

Bought them when I had the money, because I know I'll not be able to shoot my 75lb PLX take-down forever.

So, those two will stay in "retirement" till I need them. Although I do very occasionally take them out and shoot a few arrows.

Just love my 75lb'er, I shoot it a lot, and I usually shoot it pretty well too.

That's my take on bow "retirement"  :goldtooth:

Good hunting to you all.
May the wind be your friend, and may your arrows fly true,
Most of all, may the appreciation and the gratitude of what we do keep us humble......

I have four that are shooters, but really down to two actively shooting. I occasionally shoot the other two but then realize why I like the other two best.
