What length limbs? I believe there are a set of unused (Newbie who new better than his coach ) challenger limbs looking for a good home down the club. I will pop down this evening and see if they are still there.

Cheers Steve, hoping to keep mine for a little while longer, hence all the testing!

If I have to do without anything like stands, bags, etc, I will, but I want to make sure I have a riser I like.

very good idea i liked the helix from 1st laying eyes on it but decided it was to expensive for a 1st bow, but when i realised just how much the bug had bitten and how fast i was progressing i went for it

Hi, I'm looking for medium (to make a 68" bow with a 25" riser), and if possible 28/30lbs, preferably the latter.

Cheers !

Was there a massive difference in the feel? What and where did you notice?

Just intrigued really

What you need is a nice, chipped Samick SMT-9 with a bent sight. It will bring back all sorts of good memories for old fellas on the shooting line... (No, I can't do it with a straight face. )

Have great fun choosing something fab!

Rachel

hehe, cheers!

I'm actually about to choose fletchings/wraps for my arrows to match the bow, haha!

I'm such a ponce, but at least I'll look the part!
