1776 will commence again if you try to take our firearms... It doesn't matter how many Lenins you get out on the street begging for them to be taken.

Looks like a nice bow and that target looks dead!  Good shot Nightfall!
When the Cambrian measures were forming, They promised perpetual peace.
They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.
But when we disarmed They sold us and delivered us bound to our foe,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "Stick to the Devil you know."
Rudyard Kipling  1919

Are the cartridges, um, arrows expensive? I guess reloading is easier  :))

Cool rig! Have to say I am clueless in this area  ???  :)

I custom hand-made one from a stick and kite string circa 1983.  It has unfortunately been lost to antiquity, but was responsible for many slayed dragons and cowboys.

See you need to let that inner child come out, and slay some mid evil whitetail....

Arrows, like ammo varies widely in price and quality.  Reloading is a breeze...so long as the case length is right!

Thanks everyone for your positive comments. I have been practicing like crazy.  :)

I have a lot of mental health problems that I'm not fully okay with buying one on my own. But one day I plan on getting one and you all will be the first to know! :)

A bow is a good thing to have, one can take game without revealing their position. My wife has a Barnett 150lb crossbow for hunting.

I envy your shooting Nightfall, very good!  clap1
