    Some of you know I was wondering about upgrading to a new bow. Well I did I went from a '99 Browning Serria to a '13 Bear Legion. Boy what a difference and so happy. I did have to issues just after I got it. Took it to the shop and had it fixed today for free:nana:. They said it was a semi dry fire. The arrow broke as I released putting the energy in the bow instead of the arrow. I decided to get new arrows while I was there. Picked up ICS hunter beman 340's. Got home started shooting and man I'm happy!!
    The damage

    Very Nice! I love my Bear. Have had great success thus far with tight patterns and it shoots very quiet. Best of luck to you.

    Nice, good upgrade. Hope it allows you to get the drop on a nice deer. Good luck.

    Awesome. Always a cool feeling to love the bow your shooting! Like the new setup, and I really like the look of the bear dual string stops.

    Was that arrow that broke from your old bow?

    Yes it was, but they are really close according to the chart for spine.

    Thanks guys. I hope I can keep shooting this good out to 50yds. I'm hoping the deer come closer tho. Ethical shooting is always on my mind.

    Nice! I have a 2012 Leigon and I love it! In the process of getting her all dialed in for the season and plan on getting some new goodies for it. Congrats on the bow and enjoy!

    It is nice to get new toys. Its all I can think about at work. I can wait to put a arrow through the broiler room of a deer. A guy at work wants to go do a video shoot real soon. I can't wait till I go it dialed in.
