    Quiver for Prime bows. Mine is making a ton of noise...

    I have the Inline 3 with the tight spot. No issues here. Using QAD drop away rest. Maybe post a pic? I am not familiar with your rest. No issues with my QAD over the past 3 years, had it on two different bows.

    1st Pheasants of the year

    I buy them pre-sexed. They guarantee 90% accuracy. Once they are a few weeks old it's easier to tell them apart. Some people request hens if they are going to release them in the spring to try to improve the bird population.

    1st Pheasants of the year

    Typically I sell them to local dog trainers all summer. A few go out as meat birds during some of the Asian Holidays in the fall. Then once Oct hits I sell what I have left to a game preserve as I dont want to deal with the water once things start freezing up. They are a week and a half old...

    1st Pheasants of the year

    I raise Pheasants and Chukars as a side hobby in MN. My first batch of day old Roosters just showed up. Figured id share some pics. The one is a wild bird that likes to hang out around the pens where the birds move once they are fully feathered. Anyone else raise birds in here? I do about 1100...

    CVA Optima Breech Plug Broke X 2

    Sent an email to CVA this morning with the same Pic. They called back an hour later saying they wanted the gun back. I am leaving for my trip Thursday morning and they cant ship a replacement to me fast enough. So they said if I am willing I can go buy a replacement at the local shop and they...

    CVA Optima Breech Plug Broke X 2

    I believe so. I am not torqueing it with a tool or anything but it looks to be fully seated each time and I cant turn it any more with my hand. I am more confident that it was tight than I am about the bullet being seated. Was hoping to see if anyone else had this same issue and what there...
