Hickory creek mini serious bow lots of fun:
Well folks my life has moved in another direction I sold the bows that were nearly impossible for me to cock and bought the mini from Jerry. Great little bow to have fun with and hunt with. I am of the age and my worn out body requires a winch cocker to hunt or play.
This little bow is not only fun to shoot but accurate. I had to get my knee pod to steady things up I am so shakey but look out tic toters. I haven't been able to practice as much as I like. I wish as light as the bow is I could shoot better but beggars can't be choosers. Just thankful with the knee pod and an apparatus to fit in my belt and hold it to the bow I can calm the shakes enough I can get a 2" group at 20 yds. Nearly all my shoots are 15 to 20 yds. I don't shoot past 20 yds.
If you are older like me and can't cock the bow don't be afraid to get Jerry to put you a winch cocker on. I use to have a hang up about being man enough to cock the bow by hand. Not anymore just glad to be able to shoot something so small and light. Any way it's not about how you cock it the fun is still being able to shoot and hunt. Give the little bow a chance it's a real shooter.
I am not on any ones payroll I just want people to know there is small light and lots of fun bow. Don't be afraid of the winch cocker it is a piece of cake and gets weaker and older people back in the game. Thanks Larry
Light, powerful, fast, precision instrument
Congratulations Jerry, on this, your latest crossbow product. In all my
77 years, I've not shot a better, more fun to use, weapon. I've had mine
about a month now, and usually shoot at least two sessions a day with
it. I've read many of the comments others have written and agree with
all I have read.
I find it to be a light, powerful, fast, precision instrument. Mine was
first adjusted to 150 lbs and I had no trouble drawing it, except that
the gloves I was using sometimes were cumbersome. I took your advice,
Jerry, and bought a pair of weight lifter's gloves. What a difference!
I also took your advice and lowered the 150 lbs draw to about 100 lbs
while I just shoot target practice. Arrows still pierce four 1 inch
rubber mats and two 3/4" pressed wood boards I use as a back drop for my
stuffed target.
I also wish to commend you for your caring, helpful attitude when
dealing with customers. Shortly after receiving my mini-crossbow, on a
very cold morning, I failed to nock an arrow properly. I missed the
loop attached to the bowstring and placed the nock below it. The result
was a shattered arrow and a derailed bowstring. I ended up having to
call you for instructions on how to re-string the bow string. I was
embarrassed to have caused the derailing, but you immediately put me at
ease and quietly, gently talked me through the necessary process. I
ended up considering the derailment as a positive event, as I am now
absolutely comfortable performing any task on this fine instrument,
including "sighting". I'm looking forward to soon use it to shoot a few
pesky wild hogs that have been tearing up a friends gardens.
If anyone in the Gainesville, Florida area would like to see this mini
crossbow and/or shoot it, I welcome them to come by. My phone number
is: 352 371-2333.
Thanks Jerry! I appreciate you and your marvellous creation!
