we have a winner!!! the first compound bow i ever owned was that browning cobra. the thing i remember about that bow was its 4'' sight window. really hard to see an animal when the window was full of metal pins, but i took my first buck with it. when i up graded to a hoyt pro vantage with a light blue riser and a 7' sight window i thought i was in hog heaven. both bows sported those camo cloth limb socks for hunting.

I don't think we're old, some of you are just kinda young, my fathers old.
The Browning Cobra was my first compound as well. Great little bow, weighing at only 2 lbs you can carry this thing all over the mountains all day long.

This is why my first bow was a browning cobra! |

The first I took with a compound I also used a Browning Cobra...got no pics though it was doe, remember when we could take a doe during archery season? We would usally wait hunting for bucks until the last couple of days of the season and then it changed from looking for racks to looking for meat.

while i was digging through old pics i came across these. these pics were given to me by a grantsville native back in the 80's. at the time he was probably pushin 80. all these deer were taken off the stansburys on the general rifle hunt back in the 40's or 50's.   |

There were indeed much more deer (and elk) in this state once upon a time and it wasn't the bow-hunters who did them in. (great but sad pics)
