Tom2008 Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Today I bought myself a brand new bow! I got the 2007 Martin Bengal. I went in the shop and they only had 1 left. I was looking this bow for a week or two. I studied it and I fell in love haha. I got to shoot it 15 times before I decided that it was the one. My first 5 times shooting were ok, but my hands were a little shakey cause I was so excited to be shooting it! Then after that everytime over and over again hitting the bulls eye with the arrows touching. The bow is so quiet I couldn't believe it! Everytime I shot the bow just felt better and better! I bought a new sight for my bow also. I have 2 weeks to get her sighted in I can't wait till October 19th! 2007 Martin Bengal 50# Draw Weight 28" Draw Length 80% Let-Off Fuse Whisker Biscuit Sight Alpine Archery Quiver F-18 Sight 2 Limbsavers 6" Fuse Stabilizer Bow without Quiver, Arrows, and Stabilizer. Bow with Quiver, Arrows, and Stabilizer. Look at the size of the bottom cam! My Bengal in Action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom2008 Posted October 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: My Brand Spankin New Mutt Bow! The guy who set it up for me called it a mutt bow, because of all the different accessories on it. (Martin, Fuse, Alpine, and PSE) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdvantageTimberLou Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: My Brand Spankin New Mutt Bow! Great looking bow, can't go wrong with Fuse accessories on it. Your draw length seems to be a bit too long, you know that right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mo_hunter Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: My Brand Spankin New Mutt Bow! congrats nice looking bow. Don't take this the wrong way but your draw lenght is to long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck2 Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: My Brand Spankin New Mutt Bow! Tom, that's a nice looking rig. Nothing like a new bow to get you pumped. The team is counting on you to provide us a plethora of points with it. As the guys above me have said, the draw length is too long and I hope there's some adjustment available for you. The string should just come to the tip of your nose at full draw and that will allow your release hand to come further forward so you can get a good anchor on the side of your jaw. Perhaps your release can also be shortened. Good luck when your season opens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missouri hunter Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: My Brand Spankin New Mutt Bow! Good looking setup. Hope you have a chance to get one early with it. I bought a Switchback late last year and didn't get a shot with it until this year, but my third time in a stand I whacked a doe. Good luck and congrats.

hutchies Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: My Brand Spankin New Mutt Bow! Nice looking bow. Congrats. Draw looks a little to long but as long as you are comfortable don't worry about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2008 Posted October 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Re: My Brand Spankin New Mutt Bow! Ok here is the answer to why my anchor point and draw length looks weird. Sorry I didn't clarify this before. See I had my camera on a timer so I had pick up my bow hook the release on it and pull back and try to just look like I was shooting it before the picture snapped. So I was in a hurry. That isn't my normal draw length spot so don't worry guys I know it is set-up right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it is to long(which I dont' think it is) I am comfortable with it that way and it works for me. Thats all that matters. Like I posted in the first post I put in here. The bow shot awsome for me at that draw length and it is the most comfortable the way it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
