It seems like a long time since the Classic when I got my new Parker bow. Had a bad slow healing elbow the whole time so today I finally got to shoot the bow! :o :o :o Don't know how to tell just how fast it is without sounding like a braggart, but I will say its the sweetest shooting bow I ever had. I have big plans for hunting with it. Hope to draw a couple of deer tags and two elk tags for the fall and then am going to the Yukon to hunt moose. And if I can get my shooting form in line I feel sorry for any big ole moose! I hope the Hustons are through with Texas by hunting season so I can hunt elk with Hawk. Thanks James you are some kind of bow builder! Pokie

Joe, I wish you luck on the hunt in the Yukon. Other than that, all you have to do with the Vagabond is, point and shoot. I have the all wooden one, and the glass one somebody dry fired and broke 2 years ago at the Classic. It's ugly, but my go to, Glass bow. I've already head shot two hogs with it and a turkey at 20 yards. Drilled it dead center in the chest. It's a fine bow.

Eddie: This one is bamboo backed and lite as a feather. It put the arrows another 6 inches deep in the target than my regular bows. Sure would like to spend some time with you diving and hunting hogs. We will have to do a Merriam/elk hunt trade some day. Its really hard to get an elk license here as it is one of the better areas and its a draw area. Working on the coral you sent and thanks again its a challenge for me! Pokie

Pokie; Hunting with friends is what hunting is about. You can always kill stuff. I'd love to visit that part of the country again. Sometimes I think if circumstances worked out I'd still be living on the Western slope of Colorado. Coral is some weird rock. You think it is going good and all of a sudden it breaks across the middle. Come on down and hog hunt anytime, I'll find a place.

Glad your elbow is better Joe :) I think I'm gonna get one of those Vagabonds from James ;D I really liked the looks of that one of yours and have had my eye one them for a while now.

Shannon: You would not regret getting one of these bows. It hardly weights anything and will be perfect for the way we hunt off mule and horse back. Say hi to your little man for me! a/ho Pokie
