a few may remember my post a while back about my motorcycle wreck. i had sold my mathews about a month before my wreck with the intention of buying a new bow for the upcoming season.
i went to wildcat archery today to see if i could even draw a bow, since my arm got run over by the truck, 6 broken ribs on my right side, right hand mangled, and left eye damaged. i went in today and first tried the hoyt carbon spyder, the draw cycle was so rough even at 60lbs, i genuinely thought i would no longer be able to shoot considering the good things i had heard about that bow. i figured it was just from my damage, not realizing it was the bow itself.
the guy at the shop suggested that i try one more bow so i did. he brought in the new bowtech rpm360, and i immediately thought that being a speed bow it would be a waste of time to even attempt to draw that bow. when i grabbed hold of it, it sat very naturally in my hand, and the draw is absolutely amazing for a bow of that type. first 3 shots were shooting with no sights or peep, and 2 out of the first 3 shots were in the 10 ring at 15 yards.
needless to say, i sat the bow back on the counter, walked out to the showroom and came back with a qad ultrarest, 5 pin sight, quiver, and an axion stabilizer and told the guy to rig me up.
it felt so good to shoot again, and is such a relief to know ill be able to hunt this year. i had already told myself that if i couldnt draw a bow anymore, then i wouldnt hunt anymore. bowhunting is in my blood, and thankfully its not going anywhere! i was so thrilled i even picked me up a new summit viper sd climbing stand.
