Alpine Archery
«

I have the elk multi-season permit this year, so I have started getting myself familiar with my compound bow. It is a Sierra Magnum I bought used in 2003 after my PSE from 1985 finally cracked. Closest I can come to knowing the age of my current bow is a cable chart off Alpine Archery's site and it is dated 1993. I updated the bow when I bought it with stabilizer, rest, sights, and cable guard and with carbon arrows, too. It is a heavy bow, I think the center is made of steel. I am not considering a new bow. Just wondering if anyone else hunts with Alpine Archery gear.

I shoot an alpine that I am very happy with and have killed some whitetails with it.

I have a 1995 Alpine that I used for a couple of seasons deer hunting, then I put it away. When I was drawn for my bull tag two years ago I didn't think it was worth putting on the line for that tag so I bought a newer parallel limb bow. When it was all said and done, that old 1995 Alpine was less than 20 feet per second slower and just as smooth as my 2007 bow. A little longer ata, but just as accurate as my newer one. As long as you have confidence in it, and you can hit where you aim, then you should be good to go!

I got an alpine Micro for my wife to shoot (low poundage) and for my kid to grow into. Good bow, great service made in ID...

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

I don't shoot an Alpine, but one thing you might want to think about if you haven't already is getting a new bowstring for your outfit. If you're gonna be doing a bunch of shooting this summer the last thing you need is your equipment going south on you during the season if ya haven't replaced your string in a while.

I run 4 on my guide boat for bowfishing. They are a very nice bow. I have shot a couple and owned a few in the past they are a all around good bow. You should also check out bear archery, they have a great 2012 lineup with a nice range on price to fit everyone
