I bought this Sammick sage/fleetwood monarch a few years ago at a pawn shop. For $20. I bought new limbs and have practice for a few years to get decent at shooting. This year I lost my compound for about a month of the season and really hit the recurve hard because of that. Got the compound back and killed a buck so I’ve decided to spend the rest of the year devoted to taking a deer with traditional archery tackle.
This is a 55# bow at 28” shooting a 490 grain arrow. I tested my system shooting at the scapulas from my buck and it seems to be enough to get good penetration and if I hit my mark, maybe even a pass through.
I’m focused on hunting low, in good cover. At reasonable distances.
What is your advice?
