Before I start with my questions I would like to say hello to all on the forum for all the information I have picked up over the last few months.Not being of the younger generation,I have had a strong leaning to give bowhunter class a go before I pop my clogs.
So question 1.- I have just bought Black Douglas from a club member and the details of the bow are as follows.
It is 66" with xp30 limbs @ 34#
The refernce number is 4086FL
I have been shooting x7 2014's from it.
My questions are
1.Is the draw weight suitable for field target?
2.Are the arrows I have been shooting suitable?
3.Could someone give me as much information as possible on the bow and limbs?
4.Have I jumped in at the deep end and should I have gone down a more economical route to start with?
P.S.Having seen a lot of bows over the years I have to say that I am extremely happy with the look and style of the bow itself.With the finger grooves and colouring it was what I thought would be the ideal bow for this style of shooting.
Last but not least,should I give feathers a go, because I would prefer to shoot off the shelf?.I am at present using plastics off a rest.
Long winded I know but any help and comments would be greatly appreciated.
Andy.
