    I have been bow hunting for a few years.
    I have been shooting a few different recurved bows in my youth. Used to have a black widow takedown.
    I have an old Mathews switchback that does the trick.
    I just brought back this from Europe with me:

    The arrow is 28" from my Mathews as a reference .
    That Hungarian bow is only 35# @28" but is very progressive and smooth to shoot.

    Not good my mate never got back to me and he was my contact down there, still hoping to get there but might have to find someone else to go with, in saying that i should probably grab some heavier arrows and broadheads mine are mostly for shooting goats

    No body can do anythnig in the UK, thats why alot of our UK brothers are moving here for the lifestyle. The motherland is a nanny state. Met alot of lads from Pomgolia here for the guns and hunting.
