"Old" Equipment

[Artos]

I have a Pearson Spoiler I still shoot...

.....I think I bought it in 1989. 1st and only bow I ever owned.

Re strung it last year and still shoots good for me but had to crank it way down as I was pulling 70+lbs 20 years ago.

Any concerns I should have about the cables being that old??

1999 Mathews MQ-32. I still love it, but I think a change will be in order soon.

...I'm with you man. I'm still shooting my 2004 Mathews Outback which drives tacks (or atleast 3-49 ACC's) . My even older Mathews Z-Max is a great backup bow too. At bonus time, I had money "burning a hole" in my pocket and Mrs. Kamoman was even suggesting that I go get a new bow (Drenalin XT) to treat myself to something nice (I guess she felt guilty about that latest Coach purse LOL). However, I just couldn't bring myself to part with "old faithful" so I passed.

Remember..."If it ain't broke, don't fix it".

I bought a new Mathews Feathermax back in 1997. Still shoots good. Heck, it'l shoot better than I am capable of.

I'd love to get a new fangled bow... but can't see dropping lots of cash when mine still shoots good.

The way things are going these days, my 07 Dren will be "old equipment' in no time...

Old School here. I bought a Fred Bear Omni Pro for $250 about 4 years ago...first and only bow I have even owned. I feel very comfortable with it and don't plan on upgrading anytime soon. As Cull said...if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Birth date.... My left handed Mathews MQ1 was born on September 21st 1998.

Birth Place... Sparta WI

Current Arrow Speed. 255ft per sec.

Too cheap to replace it.

Up until this spring I've been shooting a Golden Eagle Evolution since new.
I shot a Darton SL-50 for 12 years before that.
Don't see why I won't shoot my Hoyt Vectrix XL for 10 years.

Yea on my 17th Bday 1997 I got a Feather max. I only replaced it last yr due to a shoulder sugery! Shoulder is pretty much GTG so I may use the old thing again some day!

[easton axis]

i dont know what year it is but my dad still shoots his darton its a late 70's or real early 80's model that thing sound like a gun going off

[bowhuntertex]

I don't shoot it much, but I usually hunt with a few times a year. I have a Golden Eagle Predator that I believe is an early 90's model. My Dad still has is Bear Whitetail that is in good working order......
