Ok, guys, here is the story behind my bow. Back in 1997 my dad was really big into exotic hunting in Texas. For a while he held top 5 spots for axis, red stag (#2 Safari club), blackbuck, Audad (#1 Safari club), and Sika. So he turned his sights onto trophy whitetail. His outfitter located a 14 pt. double drop tine buck scoring around 170. He WANTED it badly. The catch -- on a bow only ranch. So my dad went to the archery shop on hwy. 14 past what was then KKs corner. He bought the bow along with all necessary accessories on a Wednesday and they taught him to shoot it that day. He left that Friday morning headed to Texas to seek his trophy. Saturday AM at 8:30 this beautiful buck as described walks within 20 yards of my dad and with one shot he nails the big buck and around 45 minutes later retrieves his prize! Upon his return to Lake Charles that Sunday the bow was put in the shed and never saw daylight until I retrieved it last summer. I shot it a few times at a friends house and was fairly good at 20 yards with 3" groupings. So, after sitting for so many years there is a small amount of surface rust on some of the bolts/screws and the sights are not bright. So, getting new sights, rest, stabilzer, release, arrows and broadheads as we speak.
That's how I came to own this bow. It is a Ted Nugent Blood Brother edition.
