Dang,after all those fancy bows I'm embarrassed to mention my poor old bow, bowtech mighty might, bought off craigslist 3 years ago for $200, been a pretty good bow for me. ![](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s167/rcurren/IMG_20120926_205716.jpg)

Dang,after all those fancy bows I'm embarrassed to mention my poor old bow, bowtech mighty might, bought off craigslist 3 years ago for $200, been a pretty good bow for me. You've no reason at all to be embarrassed, that's a fine bow. I have a few that are much older than that. My buddy is still shooting and hunting with my first compound bow: a 1987 Jennings Super T-Star. I was still shooting it up until about 2 years ago when I lucked into the Elite I have now. I've got a couple of old Bear recurves that are older than I am, and they still shoot good too. My Dad is still shooting a Pro Line that he bought around 1990, and my brother is shooting a PSE from about that time too. As long as you still get that kid-like smile when you shoot, and are putting them in the 10 ring, keep right on shooting that bow!
