I took my bow back into Island Outfitters today for the break-in tune up which is free if you buy your bow from John Reimer. John turned up the poundage to about 56 on his scale. I know it isn't very accurate so next time BowWalker and I can get out I'd like to measure it with your scale Dan.

Anyway John spent about an hour double checking and tweaking the bow and got it all set up tight again. They have a little shooting alley out back so it is live testing and a little lesson thrown in too!

I bought a new super soft LimbSaver extender head for my hard little 4"Doinker, some fletching glues too. Its so nice to have a sport where the little stuff to dress up and tune the gear is so cheap compared to cars, planes, boats, etc!

Can't wait to get back out to the range now!!

Soft head?

Extender?

Man... you need all the help you can get at your age.
