Title: Got D-Rock to like Bowtech
Post by: Russ McDonald on July 31, 2016, 02:53:19 PM: At Bownanza today. Was tired and in a hurry. Went to draw back and line up my shot on a long range shot 70 yards. You all know where this is going. Squeezed the trigger and crack. Sound like a gun going off. Guy next to me is like what the heck was that. I didn't see me arrow fly. So I look down at my quiver yup 4 arrows there and that is what I had when I started before I took the shot. In over 7 years of shooting I never driver fired any of my bows. Well a first for me. We look my bow over. Strings all look good, nothing cranked, nothing bent so I load up and arrow and draw back. Hey were is my peep, it is gone and I didn't even notice while looking over the string. Oh well line up the shot and squeeze hey I hit that bear finally. Day before was a clean miss and a lost arrow. So on to @D-Rock425 he is sitting up with Tyler at the booth set up of Rock Creek Archery. I bring the bow up to have him check it out too. They were both looking at it and couldn't find anything wrong. D-Rock425 said he would buy that bow in a heart beat. That Prodigy is legit for sure. I will have Denton check it out when he gets back.
