Here are my setups. White bow is my Strother Inspire 3D bow. Currently it is up for sale. And the other is my Strother SR-71 hunting bow. In the second picture I frankenstein'ed a sight that i can reach out and touch 170 yards. I love practicing shooting long range.

I think about 11 months, but that was 5-6 years ago. I had Norm build each of my son's a recurve when they graduated high school and the wait was around 13 months.  He gets swamped with orders for target bows from Europe, those guys all want 40# bows.

Treekiller (I've DONE that), NICE bow!
I'd just like to remind everybody that it's about the hunting, not just the killing. In other words, it's about the total experience, the sport itself and the challenge involved. Bowhunting, done right, is a justifiable and honorable pursuit. Done for the wrong reasons, simply chalking up kills and seeking personal glory, it's taking away rather than giving back to a principled way of life that has to be experienced to be understood.

Exactly!

what your not factoring in is a summers worth of stump shooting and how many arrows you chew up and how many more you will have to build. or the fact that once you get one stick bow,  many more are soon to follow. and then there is all the money invested during adventures in bow building. its a horrible addiction I tells ya.

LOL. Horrible but strangely satisfying...Yes?
