    what no PSE love?

    I started shooting in the earily 70's after a tour of the PSE factory in Arizona. Ordered and picked up a Laser Magnum from the factory. Everybody remember shooting Easton XX75 Game Getters?

    Years later I had a few Martins, Bear and a High Country bow. Around 1990'ish I noticed my original PSE limbs were delaminating. I took it to one of the mobile PSE tour trucks and asked them what I could do or if I needed new limbs etc. They took down my info.
    Didn't hear anything for about 3 months. Thought they forgot. Then Big Brown arrived!
    I didn't get new limbs as all new limbs were not compatible with my riser. They send me a NEW Laser! At the time it was PSE's fastest bow and retailed for $900!!

    I was so sold on PSE customer service that I only now own PSE bows.
    I currently shoot an exclusive PSE Thunder Flight.

    I don't think I am going to be buying a new bow any time soon.
    I don't like the short axle to axle due to it's non-forgiving nature on longer shots.
    (these are built for short range tree stand hunting)
    I don't like single cam bow tuning.
    I don't like today's bows with their very short brace length.

    I know, I know.. all that new technology that is supposed to make it fast.
    Well... sure, but my old 1990's PSE is shooting the same speed as the new bows without the things I don't like... I just have to pull back 80lbs with only a 60% let off.
    I say lets all remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.

    I love to shoot. I have owned many different branded bows. PSE, High Country, Matthews, Bear (back in the day), and some I cant remember. I dont get up to the hills to bowhunt much now. But, still love to shoot here at 3Ds and such.

    That is Bear Creek Archery

    3340 South Knox Court

    However because of where we live we don't have to go to a range, it's in the yard

    Have a couple of The Block, and several 3d targets. our own little range in realistic settings.

    In a couple of weeks when we are in full spring time, we should get together for a shoot. The place at C470 and Morrison Road is a pretty good spot.

    Mods, how about an archery forum?

    I had one that the limbs started to de-lam. I ended up picking up a Martin and never looked back. Shot it everyday after work and picked up the oldest boy one. We were just getting ready to start hunting and the wife and I got rear-ended by a DUI and as a result tore up my shoulder. Doc said no more pulling a bow so that came to a crashing (literally) halt.
    I miss it.

    You keep your eyes open in the pawn shops and you can get a pretty good deal. A buddy picked up a barely used Solo Cam for 400.00 a couple of years ago.

    I shoot quite a bit. I got a martin cheetah a year and a half ago. I ended up getting my first deer with it last sept. BTW, Tanglewood is awesome. Their "dart system" is awesome practice for hunting. It taught me a lot. Anyone here shoot up at Big Thompson Bowhunters near loveland?
