Ryan, primitive archery isn't all about fancy and shiny. That's a perfect hunting bow right there-the meat and potatoes of what we do. We all like chasing recurves and fancy finishes sometimes, but that kind of bow there is hard to beat as an all-around shooter, and pretty much boils down the essence of our affliction.

I've killed 3 whitetails this year with a bow very similar to this w/ 2 inches of set and wouldn't trade it for anything. It's a simple utility bow and gets the job done. Sometimes simple and basic are hard to beat.

Great looking bow!

Tracy
