Received my Trade Bow today (from A.P.H. - Mike Weinberger
« on: April 30, 2011, 11:30:49 pm »
Mike, got the gorgeous Trade Bow today!  Man, I am completely stoked!!!  Love the kind letter you sent with it and had to laugh out loud at the script.  The bow is a 60" T2T (57" N2N) Bamboo backed Yellowheart.  I was out shooting it for a long time this afternoon and it really drilled them right where I'm looking so WELL DONE my friend.  Here are a couple shoots of the wonderful gift~











Can't wait to draw blood with her...

Thanks again Mike, much appreciated.

Hey Lee! It was my pleasure and even more so to hear it was so well received! Enjoy!!! And please post the pics of any protein acquired...Being able to see what you and the bow are able to harvest would be a real thrill. - Mike

Beautifull!!
I love the simplicity of this bow - and the bamboo sure looks good.

Well, the pic location could be a touch better...I hadn't noticed that my boy's 150' zip-line was so visible right across the tip nock at full draw AND i take horrid pics as well, these were all snapped by my 8 year old, Grayson  ;D

It really does shoot smooth and hits where I am trying to put them so I am thrilled.  I do need to make (maybe buy a dozen) a few arrows that are heavier and spined more for this weight bow.  I am currently just shooting a handful of leftover alum and carbon arrows from my old "training wheel" days.

Thanks again!

If ever there was a bow to make you celebrate taking off the training wheels, this one is IT.  Cuda must be jealous of your new friend.

That bow right there is the reason Mike is an "Almost" pig hunter...

If he spent less time makin' amazing bows like that and more time hunting piggies - he'd be callin' himself "PighunterXtreme" :D

Work of art!
