New Bows

RE: New Bows
I know you're not nocking them. Never thought you were.
Try gripping one tightly with a locked out elbow. I've done it on accident a few times with my 74# Wesley Special. Ouch.
Here is a site which gets into detail of the HH grip for anyone interested.

I also have some R/D longbows and some recurves with virtually no hand shock. Always trade offs though.
IMHO though, I like the differences between a D style longbow and a recurve. I don't think I will personally get anything in-between anymore (hybrid).
I shoot at least 57-58 # and those D style bows can kick no matter how you hold them,

RE: New Bows
Do you guys get excited about new bows, I am like a kid at Christmas
That's my new Chekmate Sabre; bocote and cocobolo riser with black walnut limbs. When the package arrived, Shelly said my eyes lit up like a young kid on Christmas morning. I probably look like a kid tearing into that box too. I should be able to finally shoot some arrows through it this afternoon. Between work and the weather, getting shooting time has been a challenge.
