    WTS/WTT Truball Abyss X Tension Release - Medium

    Got this release early in the summer, it's a fantastic release for target archery and hunting but was too small for me to wear comfortably with gloves on. SOLD Interested trades: 1. Truball HBC (Flex Large) 2. Truball GOAT 3. Might be interested in a Stan release too 3. Axcel Carboflax...

    High impact at further distances?

    Is there any way you can set up a camera to watch your form when you shoot at this distance? I know that at least for my samsung phone, I can set my super slow mo video to trigger on motion. I can usually get a pretty good idea of what I'm doing from that. That's definitely a weird scenario if...

    Measuring "Forgiveness" and other Properties on a Bow

    Yeah trying to isolate a lot of the variables is a very tricky thing. The human part of things does play a huge factor in the whole situation. I'd be hesitant to shoot the bow myself for these unless I'm measuring how I treat the bow. Things like the wind and all of that stuff is also tricky...

    Measuring "Forgiveness" and other Properties on a Bow

    Thanks for the input! Yeah I'm using a fulkrum flex and have it set pretty "hot" right now. So I did shorten my draw length (because despite what I was told at my local archery shop, it was tough to pull through the shot). However, after I shortened the length, I decided to put a bit more...

    Measuring "Forgiveness" and other Properties on a Bow

    Yes for ATA I think that can be determined in part as a moment of inertia thing...basically, the longer something gets, the more effort it takes for you to "twist" it in your hand (wind resistance aside). Brace height might be related to moment of inertia (since I'd assume that a longer brace...

    Measuring "Forgiveness" and other Properties on a Bow

    Wow no kidding, I might need to watch a few more video interviews with some professional archers to get a better grasp on the current go-to methods for getting the best tuned bow. I've personally never felt like I needed to paper tune to get very tight groups and from a few things I read it...

    Is spine comparable across brands?

    An interesting question that just popped into my mind (especially since the post was just talking about carbon arrows vs. FMJs) would be how spine in different arrows changes with temperature. Now all of the numbers above are VERY small...but it's easy to see that aluminum will expand and...

    Measuring "Forgiveness" and other Properties on a Bow

    That's a great suggestion. I was originally thinking about things like slightly angling the whole bow, slightly moving it in any direction, etc. I didn't even think that forgiveness could be considered an aspect of slightly improper tuning. The paper tuning discussion was something that also...

    Prime Inline 1 vs Elite Envision

    To be honest, I was wondering about the speed thing myself...you usually see the speed go down when the bow gets taller...however for the inline series the speed went up as you went from 1 to 3 to 5. To reply to the original question here though: I just got a Nexus 2 a few weeks ago and...

    Measuring "Forgiveness" and other Properties on a Bow

    Yeah I've seen some generic draw curves as well but wasn't sure if there was a collection somewhere where someone's already done this. I seen things like this done for batteries, motors, propellers, etc. in the RC community...but those things are also usually cheaper vs. buying a bunch of bows...
