A used golden eagle. Wasn't much but in middle school and high school I put a lot of easton xx75 and muzzy 100 gr through deer. I have a buddy that has some nice bows, but still stack em up with his dads old Ben Pearson. When I get more time I'm gonna get a recurve. I used to be pretty dang good with one in college.

Bear Whitetail II. Draw length was way too long then, and still is, but I can't find the mod for it.

I shot a PSE gamesport for about 9 years starting around 1990. It was the old school camo treebark. I shot a single pin sight and fingers. Killed my first deer with this bow in 97 and it is one of my most memorable hunts.
Turkeys are as smart as hunters make em and public land offers more classes.

If it eats I can catch it, if it bleeds I can kill it.

Can't remember exactly, was back in the 50's I know it was a long bow. Must have been wood because commerial use of fiberglass didn't start till around 1954.

trad bows rule, I love my old Bear recurve, they aint fast but they get the job done if ya do your homework.
Longspur, go for it man, you can spend what ya want but just make sure the bow fits you.
