Yes, not going to lie. I carried it all year that first year and it acquired more dings and scratches than I liked. Weak answer, I know.

I wouldn’t call it weak. It’s your bow, use it as you please. I’ve never been able to keep a hunting bow from acquiring a few character marks so I get it. But every bow I’ve ever owned was purchased to hunt with. Just part of the game.

My first arrows of the day. Could have been worse, could have been better. About 28 yards.
Got an injection in my right shoulder today.starting to feel better already..been aching really bad at night after i fell on it a month ago
... Hopefully can get back to shooting more soon. If still bothering me my doc will give me another one before I head to Wyoming.

I hadn't shot since Friday, so a long layoff for me (we were out of town). First 4 from about 20, I'll take it.
Yesterday's cold arrow was a good low-heart shot on the Block's dik-dik side.
Last arrow of the night was a pass-thru on the swinger that lightly lodged in the tree behind it. Luckily no damage.
This morning's cold arrow found the center of the foam.
I put some Nice Target faces on one side of the Block (turkey) and the range bag (deer).

Been doing a little shooting with the #47 widow while my shoulder heals up. Sweet shooting little bow.
@brock ratcliff u think it might be a little to the left.

One of my better cold shots in a while. 23-24 yards on the swinger.
Last 4 on the deer.
Two in the 10, two in the 8, all in the kill.

Looks here, funny man, every arrow shot out of your bows will fly left for most any archer alive. I’ve thought about it a bit. You must shoot the bow completely vertical, seeing the arrow at an angle from right to left. Your mind has compensated for the right to left flight.... has to.Been doing a little shooting with the #47 widow while my shoulder heals up. Sweet shooting little bow.View attachment 157722

. Looks like you e learned to compensate well, too!
You would be correct on shooting the bow vertical.Looks here, funny man, every arrow shot out of your bows will fly left for most any archer alive. I’ve thought about it a bit.

First three yesterday.
Today I shot the Assenheimer. I didn’t snap a pic but I just shoot it better than the Widow. Should have snapped a pic... for a few minutes there I was my own hero.

You know the reality of these things, Miller. Some days it is easy. Some days it is nearly impossible.you make it look easy.
Yup. 90% of it is half mental
