    I can absolutely confirm it’s not like riding a bike! Picked mine up last summer after a 2 year hiatus, sure was happy no one was watching that 1st weekβ€¦πŸ˜³

    @Caleb Thanks buddy!

  • Joey's avatar

    @Arne Haha! So it’s not just me. Lol

    This is good advice...10 a day. I need to at least shoot for 20 at least once a week (I have to drive to the range😜). I shoot my compound instinctively and your photo reminds me of my groups. I am thrilled you're out there Joey. I love recurves. What brand arrows do you use?

  • Joey's avatar

    @Lisa They are PSE Carbon Force Timber Arrows, Traditional Wood Pattern. I was gonna get wood arrows, but the archery shop guy suggested these. I love the way they look!

  • Lisa's avatar

    Thank you, Joey. I'm going to screenshot this and save it in my Archery folder. I am using Victory arrows now and like them real well. I love the look of yours. (I zoomed in and could read the arrows, just incase you were wanting to). I wanted what you wanted, but ended up carbon also

    @Lisa Nice setup! I like that quiver. I’m still on the fence about getting a quiver that mounts on the bow vs one that you wear on your back or hip.

  • Lisa's avatar

    Lars Anderson had a video showing a quiver on one's back....and that is all it took for me to not want one. This one (thanks, btw) was made by Selway Archery in Montana. My husband was married into the family of the ones who started Selway. Soooooo, long story short, he gave me this one. it snaps over your belt and you can tie it around your leg. I do really like it. However, I have only used it as it was intended 4 or 5 times. Mostly I just carry it these days

  • Joey's avatar

    @Lisa nice! No way! That was one of the brands I was looking at. Ultimately want to use for small game hunting, so the bow mounted one would probably be best. Course that opinion’s coming from with zero experience.πŸ˜‰πŸ˜

  • Lisa's avatar

    @Joey That's what Chris uses....let me see if you can see it on his last hunt... oh, he covered it with the scrotum sack of his elk kill

  • Lisa's avatar

    Selway, before it was sold....was just Gordie, Chris and Gordie's daughter Jodie, before she died. They worked their butts off to build the business. I'm unsure when Gordie sold it....but it was within the past 20 years I'm thinking

    @Lisa well that’s a conversation starter!πŸ˜†

    @Lisa well that’s a conversation starter!πŸ˜†

  • Joey's avatar

    @Lisa Oh.. sorry to hear that.

  • Lisa's avatar

    @Joey
    Well, he wanted to sell it, πŸ˜‰. Now he plays on his snowmobile and enjoys life! It might have been less than 20 years ago, because come to think if it, I faintly remember Chris asking me if we should try and purchase the business. And Chris and I have been married a little over 10 years

  • Lisa's avatar

    do you want me to see if Chris has any of those quivers??

  • Joey's avatar

    Good to enjoy life. Too bad you didn’t buy it, you could’ve hooked me up with one. Lol!

  • Joey's avatar

    @Lisa Didn’t see this before I sent my post. You don’t have to go to that trouble. Thank you though!

  • Lisa's avatar

    well, I am talking to him now.....just a sec

  • Lisa's avatar

  • Lisa's avatar

    he shared this link with me:

  • Joey's avatar

    That’s the one I had my eye on. Probably a 3 or 4 arrow quiver.

  • Joey's avatar

    @Lisa gonna go to pm. Didn’t think about others getting all these notifications.

  • Lisa's avatar

    You're kind Joey. But it is your post, right, and you can have whatever you want on here. 😁

  • Lisa's avatar

    Chris said the one he sent you (that you're watching) is a longbow model...and he "may" have one in storage

  • Joey's avatar

    @Lisa no worries, I’m not in a big hurry right now. Thank you very much!
