I feel for you VC, but we have all been there. I still remember an old but perfect Bear (Super Kodiak?) recurve bow @ 65 or 70 lbs. that was identical to the one Fred Bear used to use. I found it and shot it indoors at Kittery Trading Post, it fit me great and it put all my arrows where I pointed them on the indoor range they had/have(?) in the archery department. I thought about it and it was gone on my next trip!!! I have made more than my share of mistakes like that, guns, bows, boats, canoes, etc, etc, etc. It never seems to get any easier either....<><.... :roll:
