Since you bought it new (and assuming your shop is good) I’d really suggest you visit them and see if they can help get it back in spec. For ata/brace measures, I think it’s common/acceptable to be off by 1/8” from the manufacturer specs; obviously twisting things to raise dw will affect the...
Sounds like there could be something funky going on still with the strings/cables, if you have the tools, maybe pull those off and measure under tension to see how they compare to the factory specs? I’d really try to get the specs and draw weight close to factory before doing anything else.
I...
So I went from a wrist release to a hand held (thumb trigger) because it’s infinitely more comfortable/enjoyable for me and I shoot better. That was an easy decision.
Hunting you have to deal with/manage/not loose a handheld release-that’s the biggest drawback. If everything’s on the line and...
I haven’t tried the new version of the guide, but the older one is nice for what it is. For $99 bucks it’s not a bad deal. That being said, I’ve been moving away from soft shells (and I really want to like soft shells) because they just don’t cover enough temperature range for me. I find...
I just picked up a pse Evolve 33 ds. Obviously it’s a lot of personal preference, but my first thought when I picked the bow up was “dang, I really like this grip.” It’s a rubber grip insert recessed slightly into the handle, nice texture and flat back. I would say Prime has been my favorite...
I’ve thought about doing this. I just switched bows so I’m still adjusting my grip, but once I’ve got that figured out I may try adding a reference point. Usually once I have the angle and palm position down, my fingers end up being pretty consistent.
I think my grip will be one of the main things I focus on over the next month. I just got a new bow and am hoping to have time to do more broadhead tuning this weekend, but I’ve been noticing lately that my grip variations (obviously) effect tune/broadhead flight. With the cold bow challenge...
5MilesBack, thank you for this, that’s really helpful to hear how some more experienced guys are approaching this. The frame hanging up in thick stuff is/has been my biggest frustration with the full pack. I’m a solid foot shorter than you and a 26” frame carries weight well but is plain...
Serious question for you, what would you say is your average pack out distance/process? Kill an elk, process the meat, then go back for a hauling pack?
My elk hunting is all day hunts, and I’ve been considering leaving my frame pack at the truck and just using a small pack for the...
Just got the catamount gen 2 to try out. I wanted to like their stock harness, but it doesn’t get high/tight enough for my liking. I’m short and built like Mr. Potato Head, so I’m kind of used to harnesses not fitting me. BUT-I swapped it out with my AGC ultralight harness (which I love), and...
The way you describe your thought/shot process feels kinda chaotic and stressful (to me, not a dig at you). And like Jason Snyder said, it sounds like you‘re focused on the outcome (killing a buck) rather than the shot process.
To relate to this, the first time I came to full draw on a...
Man, Billy Goat is really spot on with his advice. If you’re trying to use competition as hunting practice, but not placing value on those shots, you‘re kinda wasting your own time.
“Thing is, competition, while it's fun, isn't what matters, right? What matters is when that animal is in front...
Brand new, still in the plastic axis thermal hybrid vest, medium, vias. Got this as a replacement for my old vest, but switching things up and won’t be using it. This piece is cut bigger than most kuiu, i normally wear a large and this medium fits close to that. $150 to your door, Venmo or...
Man, I’m glad you posted this, I was literally just thinking about it and wondering when they get mailed out/if anyone has gotten their tags yet. Sounds like folks are still waiting, so I won’t start worrying yet.
