    Iron Wills

    I am no expert, I just think the spine charts don't take the weight out front into account very well. I am 28.5"/72# and am in a 250 spine because I have a 100g head and another 100g outsert system.

    Custom arrow quality ?

    Order pre-cut arrows from Lancaster along with glue/epoxy and a fletching jig. Do them yourself next time...no one will be as careful as you would be when you are only building 12 arrows.

    Iron Wills

    I would talk to a shop to make sure a 300 is going to be stiff enough, especially if you hang it all off the front. This is just my opinion, but I would rather shoot a 100g broadhead with a 25g brass insert then a 125g broadhead. Even more so if you want 150g. Have the weight a little bit...

    Ritual 35; Something special

    Yes it is, which is why I have been shooting it for 8 seasons...but wondering if it is time.

    Ritual 35; Something special

    Great to hear you are enjoying it. This is a potential next bow to replace my Pulse. It felt really great when I shot it. My Pulse is throwing 529g at 272fps at 72/28.5.

    Real hunting weight arrow speeds

    Have you thought about adding some internal weights and going up to 500g? Get down around 280 with a little more weight.

    I think I will go the route of ordering pre-cut arrows from Lancaster (so I don't have to buy a cutter) and get a fletching jig and fletch myself.

    Seem like a big catch is them not having the arrows you need in the stiffer spines. No 250 BE Rampage?

    Has anyone missed a shot opportunity because of a slider sight?

    Had a 7 pin fixed for the last decade. This year, moved to a 3 pin slider (30, 40, 50). We will see how it goes, but as other have said, I think the multiple pin sliders are the best of both worlds. A single pin can definitely be good for deer. My dad had one that he shot many deer with...

    After market strings? Which ones are good for a Hoyt rx3 ultra?

    Curious as well. I am sure a string builder would have some insight. Also probably depends on how much you shoot, how tight your nock is on your serving, how fast your serving wears all over the string, how often you wax, how much you beat up your string during hunting season, how you store...

    DIY backpacking target?

    Hopefully by the time the season has come, everyone has done enough shooting for it to be second nature. You don't want to be working on things in your technique while on a hunt and have to think about them when you have a bull in front of you. Like changing your grip at the driving range...

    DIY backpacking target?

    Seems like a couple bags full of loose dirt would be a good start. Just have to figure out how to keep it all from falling out. Maybe a bag inside a bag and then you spin/rotate the bag inside the outer bag to make the holes not line up any more. Maybe go to three burlap bags.

    After market strings? Which ones are good for a Hoyt rx3 ultra?

    The 60Xs I just bought and put on myself seem to of settled very nicely and shoot very good. I have not used them long enough to give any more info then that.

    Learning to setup and tune.

    I recently moved and don't have any shops close...which is the price you pay for having elk in your back yard ;-) I bought a little press, changed my strings and did my d-loop, peep, etc. The John Dudley stuff has really helped me. And Lancaster chat.

    Preventing Arrow Damage

    https://binged.it/2xrXuK3 Here is some testing of the Black Eagle FOCOS system that shows some testing of being shot into steel, block aluminum and the related damage to the arrow/outsert. I believe it is a very good system for me personally. Iron Will's should work similar, I just happen to...

    I believe the theory is that they are quieter during flight.

    In between 340 and 300 spine

    Great lesson. So many of us wait to shoot broadheads until right before the season. I am making sure to shoot them right away and get everything sorted out now and not in August.
