Limbs died.

ANNOUNCEMENT

Today my limbs died.

RIP Challenger Crafts,
Born - unknown
Died - 29th October 2006
you will be missed.

Yes you had your faults, you stacked rather badly and you carried no 'wow factor' - but you nearly got me to a 1st, and I am sure you served you previous owner well.


--> The fact you nearly gave me a heart attack when I realised the reason I shot my last 18 arrows was because you had already gone is forgiven.

I commit your body to the bin.
May you rest in pieces.

Sad to hear of your bereavement jaarus.

Seems like a bad day for limbs all round.

A set of G3's went at Thirsk this afternoon, a delamination of the belly side of the bottom limb whilst coming up to full draw.

Also heard first-hand of a set of SF Carbons that went a few weeks ago, complete break across the middle of the bottom limb. The owner is still awaiting replacement after 2 weeks, after being promised a new set within 3 days.

That would be the visitor from north of the border then. I had a chat with him as well. He was on borrowed limbs.

'Twas indeed, and shot very well considering he had no time to do more than a basic set-up. As for Jared T, his G3's were just on borrowed time.

Hi Mick I also was at Thirsk when the poor guys limbs said goodbye, the remarkable thing was the instant silence that hit the room, and the way that all heads turned to look at the guy, I guess it could have turned nasty, at least no one was hurt, apart from in the pocket that is
