PSE’s turned things up a notch again this year. Whether it’s a trad bow, competition, backyard fun or in a stand waiting on a buck or doe, it’s just cool. Sometimes when I’m bowhunting I’ll take a gander at my PSE Evo or DNA SP and think about the engineering. Wheels, cams, high-tech strings, composite limbs, titanium, aluminum, carbon fiber … it’s pretty incredible, really, if you consider it. That’s diehard gettin’ after it right there, the traditional way, old school throwback shootin’ and huntin’ style.īut in the last, oh, 50 years or so we’ve advanced monumentally and continue to do so each year with compound bows. Some guys still hunt with wood, string and rocks. We’ve come a long way since those early days of wood, sinew and rocks. I mean, it’s a simple contraption that has been around for centuries: Stick, string, pointy stick that flies toward a target. It’s always interesting to ponder a bow when you’re sitting in a tree stand or ground blind, or it’s interesting to me.
