Default Ordered a new bow.

I ordered me a Z7 should be here sometimes in the next few weeks. I have not had a new bow in about 8 years.

I am trying to decide whether to hold on to my LX as back up.

LX was (still is) a great bow. Considering they are not worth much used... Keep it. Never know when you will want to bring the old gal back out! Wish I still had mine.

That's fantastic AR B. Congratulations. Nothing like a new bow, particularly after 8 years.

I remember what it was like upgrading after 12 years. What a difference.

Congrats on the new bow. I've been shooting the same one since 1988. Buddy of mine wants us to go after elk and he says it's time to upgrade. He says I'm in for a surprise when I try out the new stuff since I've only shot my bow for the last 20 years.

Been shootin' inside, in my garage, just to get a feel for the new rig. Man, I can't wait for some good weather so I can really put my Z7 through the paces. I wanna see what she can do at some longer ranges. I also ordered a B-stinger stabilizer for it yesterday and a new peep. I would like to get it ready from some Techno video league ASAP. One thing's for sure.... I can't remember when I've had this much fun shooting a bow in a long time!
