bow and arrow preferance
Okay, since Dick284's little pool in the genreal discussion thread , I figured I'd do one here on archery.
Here's my preferances
A: flatbow and cedar arrows, Zwickey Deltas
B: recurve with cedars arrows and Zwickey Deltas.
C: other!
List yours and let's see how many devisions we get.
I got rid of most of my bows a number of years ago, but I know many archers who one all the different types and hunt with all of them also.
Same with arrows.
I also shoot a recurve freestyle bow and aluminum arrows, but this is for hunting bows only.

XI Legend XRG with over draw.
4 pin Cobra fiber optic sight.
2312(?) XX78's with 100gr. Spitfire Broadheads. (been a while since I've bought any)
And like it see's a whole lot of use, damn waterfowling gets in the way of my bow hunting.

to much guys
I pick "C", as i like a reflex/deflex Longbow with fastflight strings, Easton legacy wood print aluminum arrows, and simmons shark broadheads. Back quivers and bow quivers are both used, depending on application.

I'm new to archery and have fallen in love with it!
I just got my fist bow last year. It is a Browning Rage, and I am shooting Radial X Weave carbon arrows. What I like about this bow compared to almost all of the others I tested, was the draw. It's very smooth and consistant, yet easy to hold in place at full draw. It's not a high end bow, but it is the one that fit my body type and kinetics the best. I was fortunate enough to take my first deer ever with it this past season, with several other close in 'learning experiences'. Where we hunt is only 15 minutes from my front door in Calgary, and I only had the .243 out three times in the past two seasons (the previous season I was using a borrowed bow). I think I may be addicted! It is really an eye-opener for someone who spent his entire life with a rifle. It has been a blast!

bows are great, i love 'em, but dont you just hate that feeling, when you see a big buck walk out in the clearing 300 yards away and your only one thought is, "if i only brought the rifle today"
