    Spot Hogg Boonie

    I like all the new features, but haven't decided if I want to swap out one of my tommy hoggs for one. I really like the sight marks.

    For Those Of You Who've Been To Total Archery Challenge (TAC)

    I used to do this but came to the conclusion it was a waste of time. It takes about 12-15 grains of variation to move your sight tape 1-2 yards at 100 yards. Just building arrows without weighing components, they still generally come in within 2-3 grains of each other (might have had a few go...

    School me on stabilizers

    I use a quivalizer with no back bar. I've used arrows ranging from 28" C2C to 31" C2C.

    School me on stabilizers

    15" front and 10" inch back bar is a really stable setup for me, without being too unwieldy. I run 2-3oz on the front and 5-6oz on the bow. However for hunting I've moved to a quivalizer. Lower profile when packing in, and a full pound lighter than the 15/10 setup plus a full tight spot quiver.

    New arrow set up?

    Did you use a calculator to come up with the 250fps reading? If you get actual chrono numbers with one arrow, then tweak the ibo in this calculator to get you the same speed as the chrono, it will be very accurate for checking other arrow weights: https://siriusarchery.com/arrow-speed-calculator/

    Need some opinions on the Spot Hogg Triple Stack

    I had a triple stack and went back to the double pin. With my setup, I have zero need to for 3 pins to cover 40 yards. I set the triple stack at 20/30/40. But my double pin I can leave at 25/40 and it works just as well. 30 and in I put the top pin on the animal and shoot. Max of 2.5"...

    Kifaru Scabbard

    I just see zero need for a rifle scabbard. Same thing I thought every time I saw the eblerstock options.

    Short Draw length elk setup.

    S2 Omen maxes out at 28.5" draw length. I love my E2 Omen. It hits a legit 355 IBO at 30". The S2 cam is even faster.

    Fishing Panama's west coast?

    I would reach out and get a quote. I went 2016ish, so I'm sure prices have changed. They have also vastly improved and added accommodations since then.

    Fishing Panama's west coast?

    I went 2 years in a row, when they were first setting it up. The first year there was no option to rent gear, so I brought all my own gear. 2nd year I did the same thing. If I was going again I would just rent through the lodge. Way less hassle than flying with it, and they'll have exactly what...

    I know a lot about guns but I don't know shit about bows.

    I buy all my bows used, and typically spend 50-60% of retail for a 1-2 year old bow, so I'm biased in that direction. $800 budget for a bare bow is plenty. I've seen dealers on FB selling new old stock for $600-700 lately. Hard to do though if you don't know what you're looking at, or have...
