LOL Timo, the camera I had before, had a nice blinking lite and audible ticking sounds, made it easyer for a dummy like me  ;D

Yeah Kegan the limbs are shorter than my arrows, I'll take pictures of it strapped to the quiver

Billy, I'm 5'6", 150#, 43 years old, and only being shooting bows for 6 years........if I can do it, anybody can !
it's just a matter of commitment and will  ;)

Thanks Manny. I really like that quiver too, it'll be cool to see it all bound up and ready for travel (truly nomadic ;)).

Manny, do you have any more difficulty shooting short heavy bows compared to longer heavy bows? You don't have any issues with stack do you?

Any stack Kegan ? ....absolutely !
  As I retillered it and realised that the midlimb was handeling the bending well I keep the outher limbs stiff to improve string angle, but at this lenght it definatly isn't as pleasurfull to shoot as my longer bows of the same poundage, ...but I'll get use to it  ;D I'll make it work  ;)

I'm not quite 100 % at shooting this monster,...... but I'm getting there, today I was shooting real good, by the end of the week I should be real close to 100%

tomorrow I'll take it out for it's 2nd hunt, if I get time I take pictures of the 2 quivers I'll be using this summer ready for travel with the bow broken down

Wow. I think you're the monster Manny :o. Shooting a 92# bow that STACKS at 100% after a couple weeks?

Holy friggin' cow :D!

Can't wait for more pictures.

Yeah, but my 100% is probably around 70% for the good shooters  ;D :D


On my way out for evening hunt,...wish the monster good luck  :)

Still, shooting such a short, heavy, stacking bow at your full capabilities is really amazing.

Best of luck, and don't forget some photos :)

That one is a variation of the GFA quiver, it rides under the right armpit, hood forward,...but can be swang back in necessity  :)

Oh that's cool. It looks good for stalking, but I'm guessing it's not the fastest on the reload like a back quiver, right?

I was just sitting here, smiling dreamily at your work. :)

That is a beautiful bow, a wonderful job as always.
I have been wanting to get my hands on some Damascus steel broadheads. They look great.
Good luck this summer!

Thanks Sean.

Absolutely Kegan, nothing is as fast to get an arrow on the string after a shot like a backquiver,...the advantage of this quiver is that is much cooler in hot weather

Very cool bow Manny. At 92# it would feel like it was stacking at brace height to me! ;D

I keep forgetting about the weather there :D! Between that and the bugs seems like it balances out not having to deal with snow and what not.
