maddhunter Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Well after waiting 5 long weeks Cole's new Mathews Ignition finally came in. We rushed over after work and school to get it. By the time we got home it was already dark, but do you think that stopped us???? NO!!!!!!!!!!! I brought the back-up foam around under the pole light, turned on all the outside lights, (it looked like we were landing a 747) and shot until he couldn't shoot anymore. He loves that bow as much as I love my Switchback. He only has a 19" draw so his arrows look like crossbow shafts. That little bow is awesome. It shoots so much better than the bow he had it's like going from a beat up old truck to a HUMMER For a youth bow it's really fast and doesn't make a sound. It even has string suppressors on it. I'll get some pics of him and his bow up tomarrow after I get home from work. "OH HAPPY DAY, OH HAPPY DAY" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QDMAworks4me Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 Re: THE BOY FINALLY GOT HIS BOW !!!!!!!! Really nice to have an excited son and an excited father. I was at the bow shop last week and I was there when a young girl and her sister were getting set up with the same bow, they were having a blast also!!

Washi Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Re: THE BOY FINALLY GOT HIS BOW !!!!!!!! How fast is he growing? His draw length is already about an inch too short. The string isn't touching his nose and his bow arm is bent too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Thanks for the dampner I've taught him to keep his left arm bent as I do so the string doesn't scrape down his/our arm.for the draw lenth, we're just getting use to the bow. I kind of think we can maybe go up atleast another inch myself. Which won't cost us anything to change cams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Washi Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Re: THE BOY FINALLY GOT HIS BOW !!!!!!!! Sorry. I'm not really trying to rain on your parade. It's better to be too short than too long. I just saw that it looked like the string isn't touching his nose and then I thought IF it was then his elbow would REALLY be bent a lot. Some bend is fine for just the reason you stated. Congrats on the new bow. It looks very nice. Hope he enjoys it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddhunter Posted March 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Re: THE BOY FINALLY GOT HIS BOW !!!!!!!! Yep he's ate up with it now. Cole has been going to bed early so he can get up and shoot his bow before he goes to school. I've already turned his bow up 5 pounds. He'll be up to legal shooting wieght (40#s) by turkey season.
