Bowtech Tomkat....first year to bowhunt. killed a doe at 40 yrds. That was exciting. It was even more exciting to have a monster buck walk in behind me at 7 yards and not get a shot....(that part was heartbreaking) :)

What I've been using the most has been a Black Widow TD Silver Anniversary. I picked up a few additional bows during 2008, and I think in 2009 (Ike ruined my '08 bow season plans) I'll be using a little beauty built for me by Steve Tallant.

I got two longbows from him and can't praise his bows enough. Smooth drawing, fast, hard hitting; the one I'm seeming to go to most is a short 56", pulling 60# @26".

I shoot a Hoyt Havotec with a ripcord rest set at 68 pounds. I chronoed my setup at 278 fps, not to bad for a 6 year old bow.

Speaking of oldies, I have an old Hoyt Pro Force Fast Flite that used to shoot 30" 2413 aluminums at over 280 fps with a 29" draw at 74 lb. I say used to cause I don't shoot the beast anymore. It was one of the original speed bows about 15 years ago. I did pretty well at 3D tourneys with the beast but it sounded like a freaking gun going off and I was never comfortable hunting with it. If anyone is a collector let me know and we can work something out. Current rig is a Hoyt Pro Tec. Much nicer on my old bones and the animals ears.

BowTech TomKat (well, it used to be anyway ;)) . Still have my first Shakespeare Wonderbow from 1968 too. I love the TomKat! Fast, simple and user friendly. I hang out and shoot at Santa Fe Archery when I can. Hope to see some of you there someday. Guy

Pearson Z-34. 60# 28" DL

Between working full time and going to school, I have very little time to practice. :mad: I just got it about a month ago and never have time to shoot it.

That'll change soon enough though. :biggrin:

Bowtech Old Glory pulling 70lbs shooting 29" Gold tip 5575s with Muzzys on hogs and Rage 3 blades on deer. My new one is a Bowtech Guardian pulling 71lbs at 29" shooting 5575's with Muzzy for hogs. I have a Bowlight from Tactical Devices Incorperated in Austin that I use at night for hogs. I have a HHA single pin adjustable dial site and a Trophy Ridge dropzone rest on my Guardian. My Old Glory has a NAP quicktune drop away rest with Trophy Ridge Matrix sights. I've killed over 40 hogs and 4 deer with the Old Glory hopefully the Guardian will be just as good to me as the Old Glory.

PSE Diamondback that I bought used off craigslist. I have no idea how old the bow is. I chronoed it after I bought it at a blistering 204 fps ;-)

28" draw - 50 Lb +- a few.

Beeman ViBrake ICS Hunter 340 Arrows, 125 Grain Muzzy broadheads

It is my entry bow - I will be upgrading to a new one someday - something that shoots a little faster but I'm in no real hurry - this bow brought down 2 animals last season, and it didn't break the bank.

My son and I just got home yesterday from a Javi youth hunt on the Chaparell. We put a successful stalk on and when he went to draw the javi busted him and bolted off the road. We had an awsome time. This would have been his first game animal with his bow.
