When she fell it snapped the ferrule off right at the insert. I had that vertebrae with the broadhead stuck in it for years and then it was lost.

Hoyt Bow Bullet 145 grain, 31" Easton XX75 2317. Clearwater Powermag compound pulling just over 80#.


Used to use an Elite GT500 with 90 pound limbs, 31" 2219 arrows with 145gr (if I remember right) Bone Busters sharp enough to shave with. Never didn't have a complete pass through on deer or black bear. Those days are definately over now though. With the arthritis I earned for 40 plus years in electrical construction, I'm starting to look at crossbows even though I just bought a new Elite EnKore this past summer. But it's only got 60 pound limbs on it.


It isn't what happens to you that defines you, it's what you DO about what happens to you that defines you!
