ey ey Captain

Longtrad, I may take you up on your offer......let me just figure out a few things. Also, shipping would be to Lewiston NY, I have a shipping address there that I use for all my US purchases (fedex and ups always have extra charges that are insanely high)

The wife and I are talking about buying some property just a little north of us in and around cottage country and maybe putting a small cabin on it, currently looking at a 100 acre lot thats next to Crown land (government land) and there are creeks and lakes nearby, looks like it would be good hunting land, so I may have to hold off on purchases for a while, But let me figure out whats happening and then I will get back to you on your beauty Bear

Has 2 small holes in the riser that need to be filled and blended & the limbs are both off a little to the right but nothing a little warmth and twisting back wont fix

Kirk sorry for the delay, been working on beating this flipping col and busy with work ugh! Thanks for the tips on looking out for a bow. I will definitely put them to use as I play around with this some more. I've started to watch a bit more on line to get familiar with the pricing and values. I'm in no hurry and enjoying the search. I'll be sure to reach out to a if I have any questions. Thanks.

No worries, I have a cold that's been dogging me for the better part of a month now. Just holler if you need help or advice...not that I'm an expert or anything, but I've done alright in my dealings.
