    I bought a used split limb bow from a friend.
    When I shot it the first time, it made a terrible vibrating noise. After a lot of tuning, dampening and vibration control, it's ready for the woods.

    Since it made such a racket, I named it "The Toad"


    My Horton Hunter XS is named "Big Nasty"

    My old was a Q2. Called it that, since I updated to the Creed this summer, with how hard it hits, I named it Mjolnir

    I have a feeling we're going to have a bunch of bows named Mathew and Hoyt.

    As for me, I guess I'll name mine....Keyser Söze

    Some of you will get that, some won't.

    Haha, I've never thought of it before and I don't recall ever hearing of any legendary "named" bows but I like the idea....screw named swords, this will be fun, lol.

    Okay, I'm naming mine:
    "Peng Menadh"-----Which is Elvish for, "Bow of Fate/Fortune/Death"

    Not really. I did a write up about my old bow and called it "finny". I never called it that in real life though. It was a PSE infinity so it wasn't that original anyway.

    Since I took a doe on October 20th and shot my buck on 11/9 this year. I think I'll name my new bow "lucky". Though I'll never call it that. :)
