    18 strand vs 20 strand bcy 8125

    I’ve tried both, when I was young I shot with a traditional glove but didn’t like it, I have a yost tab now that I’ve tried a bit, I really just can’t do it, it just feels off to me, granted I have some muffed up hands, they go numb a lot and straight off the string is the only way I can...

    18 strand vs 20 strand bcy 8125

    I only said 8125 because that’s all I know, I’m still new to this, coming on my 3rd season with the silly stick, just curious if the extra strands will be better off the fingers, I’m still playing with different limb lengths trying to find what feels best to me with a 27 3/4 draw length. I had...

    18 strand vs 20 strand bcy 8125

    Playing with longer limbs on my bow, so gonna order a new string. What’s y’all’s thoughts and opinions on going to a 20 strand instead of an 18 that I’ve been shooting, same brand limbs, same weight just mediums instead of shorts. I shoot straight off the fingers no glove or tab (never been able...

    Noob Questions

    I started with 42-44lb draw when I came from a compound also shooting 75ish and didn’t have any issues after using a clicker, as far as bow length I’m not sure, you have a way longer draw than me at 27-3/4 I’m still playing with overall bow length, I’m sure someone with way more knowledge than...

    Another ilf/springy rest question

    So another question for y’all I’m shooting a satori 17” riser right hand with a springy rest and playing with the tune a lot, and right now I’m shooting a bare shaft just slightly inside of center instead of slightly outside of center like it’s typically recommended, the bare shaft is flying...

    22 Mag vs 17 HMR....does anyone choose a 22 Mag anymore?

    I’ve had a .17hmr in a marlin since 2011 I love the gun I’ve hit golf balls at 250+ but not consistently a beer can however is a different story my only issue with it is that squirrels (my main target) with it will blow them almost in half if not a headshot inside 75+ yds, I did kill a squirrel...

    Looks like I’m gonna play with both open for awhile instead of jumping back and forth during shooting sessions and see what happens after that thanks y’all

    One eye open or both?

    Seems like we’re opposite’s I started with both eyes open and was doing well then went to one as I got more comfortable with my draw length, and at first it was going well at distance like 28-34yds. Then going closer seemed to suffer. Now playing around with both my accuracy at all distances is...

    One eye open or both?

    Been messing around with both since getting comfortable with my draw length and using a clicker. I’ve been playing around with both eyes and one eye open and will have consistency in both techniques then for no reason fall apart on any given day after getting comfortable with either. Anyone else...

    Killed my first with the recurve

    It wasn’t pretty by any standard, spine shot him should of shot these wider heads before but I figured they would be fine at 14yds... they shot high and about 8” right. Got it done but definitely wasn’t my proudest moment. Hope everyone is having a great season y’all.
