  2. Yeah, I've heard of Google...

     

    Worked with PSE this morning. They don't have any limbs left that will fit. They did help track down several large distributors across the country that have older limbs in stock. I called them all and none have my limbs. PSE told me that this bow didn't share many components with other bows in their lineup and was only sold for two years, limbs are scarce. I'm not the original owner so warranty discount isn't an option.

     

    Actually there are two Vengeance bows on ebay, a 2005 starting at $170 and a 2006 at $500 (crazy). The guy selling the $500 one is smoking crack. And I'd be into the other one for $200 plus out the door. These bows are worth $150 bare at best (that is what I paid for this one on this site a year ago).

     

    Like I said, it's worth a shot trying to find limbs but spending much over $100 on this bow doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

  3. Oldest boy has a 2005 PSE Vengeance. We just noticed one of the limbs cracking. Called PSE and they don't have any replacement limbs available anymore.

     

    So I'm on the lookout for limbs or a used bow for parts. It's a good shooting bow, would hate to have to send it out to pasture. Plus it's setup for the boys condor like wingspan, he has a 31 inch draw.

     

    Limb number is 882

    Deflection number is 32

     

    Anyone have a line on limbs or a bow? He got picked for early archery bull 5BN and this is stopping his practicing.

     

     

     


  4. We do a Black river trip every may. Sometimes it's a backpack trip (this year was) sometimes we camp on top. We go in on the San Carlos Res. This trip has been going on every year for the pas 37 years. My buddy who has been planning this trip all this time keeps a journal of each trip, (who went, temp, weather conditions, fish caught, animals seen, fun things we did, etc).

     

    The year before the wallow fire was the record for fish caught. 15 guys fishing for 3 full days landed 458 fish, with quite a few 2.5 + lb smallies. We'll eat a few fish on the river one day but the rest are catch and release. We didn't stop going after the fire, 37 year old tradition to uphold and all. First couple of years after the fire we would try the fishing on the river but spent quite a lot of time on the stock tanks on top and Point of Pines lake. Fishing was bad on the river but that was to be expected. There were still small bass but all the larger bass were gone as were all the trout. As bad as it was, every year got better. This year we broke the record. about the same # of guys fishing for 3 to 4 days landed 505 fish. A few 2+ lb smallies, a few 14+ inch rainbow. Average smallie was in the 1lb range. There is still ash/mud in the slower pools but they are much deeper now, like they used to be. The topwater fishing this year was incredible, nothing like a smallmouth bass slamming a popper. Only saw 2 other people on the river the whole time. Talked turkey with some Jakes, ran into a few bears, weather was great, ate like kings, as always a great time on the Black. As we always do, we hiked out any trash we found which wasn't much, maybe it's where we go but the river seems to be rather people trash free.

     

    My boys absolutely love this trip and we have some others that go even though they don't fish. It's that great of a trip. In my eyes, the river took a big hit with the fire but it is on a good track to being as good as it was, this year is proof of that I think. Keep it hard to get to, keep it primitive, and it will always be good.
