    Something I’ve found helpful for sighting in!

    I don’t want to derail your thread, but thought I’d address your opening statement in the event you’re looking for some insight into why you can’t shoot dots. You have a form of target panic, and it’s really common that guys who can shoot generally well but can’t shoot dots start over-aiming...

    Easton 5.0 vs Victory HLR (Results)

    I didn’t have good luck using the 50 grain SS inserts, but I’m not sure what I would advise you to do. The lighter GPI HLR shaft is just going to be less durable. While, I don’t think those 50 grain inserts are long enough to offer enough protection for the shaft as the Shok inserts do - if...

    Tuning after shortened draw length

    Hard to say without seeing you shoot, but based on what you’re saying, I would bet you’re also pulling with your arm and shoulder more than with your back. Also, pay attention to how much tension you have in your hand when going through your shot process. With a stiff hand and wrist, your...

    Hinge release?

    Fast forward to 6:15 and George address your problem specifically.

    Raised bed gardens?

    Others have given you pretty good ideas, but you can use unframed mounds, too. We use traditional raised beds, but a neighbor doesn’t use anything but mounds on the ground and they seem to get just as much production as we do.

    Tuning after shortened draw length

    To the OP, I know you’re asking about tuning after shortening your draw length, but if you’re new to shooting a hinge and you feel like it’s hanging up - it’s usually not the draw length. If your bow was the correct draw length to begin with, shortening it by a 1/2 inch is a lot. I’m sure you...

    Easton 5.0 vs Victory HLR (Results)

    Speed, durability, or weight… pick any two. I have been shooting the 5.0 match grades and HLRs in a 250 spine since they became available. Neither the 5.0 or HLR shafts are as durable as an Axis or Rip TKO. If you need a lighter GPI shaft because you have a short draw length or pull less draw...

    Wyoming Corner Crossing, LEGAL!

    Agreed. Plus, if the landowner was a real jerk about it, and could show the game warden where I crossed illegally, he should also be able to show and prove where the corner is. If the game warden issued me a ticket, so be it… but then I’d cross at the legal spot and go hunting.

    WY Corner crossing update

    Corners are going to compete with burns in terms of places to run into other hunters.

    WY Corner crossing update

    I wondered about this, too. I asked about survey costs on monuments because if someone was really interested in staying out of trouble and had a particular place they wanted to hunt, the cost of a survey could seems like a way to mitigate legal issues (unless there’s a particular issue with a...

    Thanks for the info!

    WY Corner crossing update

    Question for you… How much does a survey typically cost?

    Stuff overheard at the range or local gun shop

    I’ve been seeing a brand of goggles pretty frequently when I’m skiing - they’re called “Outdoor Master”. Seeing those made me think of wildernessmaster… I cannot believe someone or a company would choose an online handle or a name for their company like that. I also cannot believe that...

    Drop-away rest decisions

    I haven’t shot anything but Hamskea for roughly the last 10 years or so. I’ve had no issues whatsoever with a limb driven rest. By the same token, I used to shoot QADs and had no problems - and I know guys who shoot QADs and they’ve had no issues either. The concept of limb driven rests and...

    Hip, field, pocket quivers?

    I got a hip quiver from the The Push archery when they first came out. It was good, but pretty quickly after that - Kifaru came out with their quiver inspired by The Push’s quiver and I’ve been shooting that for years. The Push has come out with a smaller quiver, and it looks like it’s a...
