    Stryker Vs. Stryker XL

    Lol exactly. I actually have a Sherman pocket and was thinking of doing that this year if I don't get a Hellbender or whatever. It'd function like the grab-it and won't give me a TON of extra storage, but if my rain coat or something squishy can't be stashed in it...I bow hunt so I was also...

    Stryker Vs. Stryker XL

    I have the Gen 1 Stryker....my buddy bought the Stryker XL just two weeks later when it unexpectedly dropped. I get by with mine, but really wish it had the side Nalgene pockets. Those are very handy. My Gen 1 is 300 cu inches smaller than the Stryker XL....and 600cu inches smaller than the...

    Who has ditched the trusted Nalgene bottle?

    Also, get a CapCap lid if you DO use a nalegene and don't already have one...it's much easier to drink from and eliminates you touching any contaminated water on the rim of the Nalgene if you fill it directly from the stream. https://www.rei.com/product/777295/humangear-capcap-water-bottle-top

    Who has ditched the trusted Nalgene bottle?

    Like many who have already posted, I too have tried a wide array of water-carrying and filtering options over the years. There are pros and cons to all of the various options, but 2yrs ago I converted to carrying a Nalgene for my go-to daily water supply that rides on my hipbelt of my pack. It's...

    Iron Will Single Bevel Broadhead

    Great info Bill...quick question, though I know it's somewhat controversial...is there any plan to make a Left bevel? I personally fletch left to embrace the natural left rotation that my arrows have when leaving my bow...so ideally I'd match the bevel to the natural spin...however most...

    AAE Pro Drop aka Nock On Elevate Rest

    I used a Nock On Elevate rest for over a year on my old bow...easy to set up and overall, it was fine. I too was drawn to it for its potential to keep my arrow from moving when still hunting/spotnstalking, or even steep angled shots...it helped keep the arrow from lifting 'up' off the rest...

    Valkyrie substitute

    That's awesome. Did you/the podcast mention when they thought they'd be available for purchase? I definitely intend to check out that podcast as well...good info! 500fps is MOVIN'...I know bolts are stouter in spine flex than regular arrows...would be curious to see what kind of flex a bolt has...

    Valkyrie substitute

    These look legit...I'd be very curious to hear feedback on the 3-blades after some use...the 2-blades look like Cutthroats. Although, I'm fairly confident you can still run any of the Blood Eagles from Valkyrie without using micro-diameter arrows? https://valkyriearchery.com/shop/bloodeagles/...

    New Nock On Release - Back Strap

    I bought one as well and will report back with my initial thoughts also. I love the concept and feel it solves several 'problems' or realities when hunting. Always on your wrist, teaches archers both old and new, how Back tension should work, and essentially is a 2-for-1 release...you're paying...

    Expanded Spine Chart and Arrow Build

    Sorry for apparently some confusion on what I was indicating as the solution to my wind drift issues. I wasn't implying the smaller diameter solved the wind drift issue. It was a combination of the .204's having larger vanes, a 2-blade solid broadhead, which definitely planed in the wind...AND a...

    Expanded Spine Chart and Arrow Build

    I've read the OP's post and subsequent comments, nodding my head in agreement at most everything....I've built .204's and .166's (using the Valkyrie system and outserts and have had the absolute best luck and consistency in flight and lethal shots on deer, hogs, etc.)...getting both arrow setups...

    Valkyrie System

    Like most, been intrigued based off what I'm hearing and seeing....never cared too much about FOC (or speed for that matter). I shoot heavy arrows and eventually bought a test kit a month ago. However, I ordered their lightest setup of 160, 180, and 200gr practice tips.....which compared to my...
