    My wife has a little side business and she sells purses and jewelry...so anyway there is a flea market she'll hit on occasion to set up. I have plenty of free time so I gathered some stuff and got a spot of my own. Mostly old hunting gear etc.

    Now this flea market is on the edge of Youngstown Ohio..one the edge kind of a bad place.

    I had an Old PSE 50-60 lb bow. This 20-ish black dude is looking at it in so I start talking to him. He asks what it weighs as he struggles pulling on all the string and cables trying to get it back. I said it's set at 55lbs and to only pull the one string :rolleyes: not all 3. He gets it part way back...

    He then asks what can you hunt with it. I said, pretty much anything, Deer Turkey even Bear. He said wow "Bear"?

    He asks How much?

    I think ok! I may just introduce someone new to the sport who may have never had the chance otherwise. I said $65

    Then he said well it if it will kill a bear it will definitly kill a human right?? :eek:

    I said sure it would...but I'm holding it for someone who left me a deposit..
