    Yeah Steve its pretty tough get a feel for a bow from pics. When I bought my Whisperstik, I thought what an awesome looking bow, heard NOTHING but good about them and figured if I didn't like it this would be my trading bow to start with! Turns out I love it. Looks like I'm on the market for another trading bow!:deer:

    i went by Kanga's house after work last night. That was a mistake. That reflex-deflex is looking good. i didn't shoot it, I just didn't have time and I think thats a good thing!

    Joe.

    I just might have to send you up the "Bogan" to try out.:d

    Thats the one that caught Greg's eye yesterday.

    It's a TD with 2 1/2" Reflex and 1 1/2" Deflex and quicker than the Yarra;)

    You just might have to do that Russ! Thats gotta be pretty good if its quicker than the Yarra, because she packs a punch!

    Yeah I read that the other day that he shoots one! I'm liking the Red Fox! I wish I would of went to Kalamazoo a few eeks ago, this would of made things a lot easier! I could of shot every bow on my list and then some! Then I could of bought them and started crossing them off the list!:deer:

    I forgot to put the RER on the list! This is an awesome feeling bow! The grip is right there where it needs to be!!!!!!!! You ever shot a RER???

    They have a few in stock! Whip from tradgang had about 4 or 5 with him on our rabbit hunt a few weeks ago!! Like I said amazing grip! He just updated the sponsor classifieds on trad gang! Not sure what the actual turn around time is, give Joe a call, he a great guy and works hand in hand with Kevin from RER. Tell him I said hi!
