    Need help with building new arrows for my DW and DL

    Easton Flatline DOA 400 spine 26" cut. Since my shoulder reconstruction surgery, unfortunately, they had to cut off 1/2" of tendon because it was torn/frayed so bad they had to have a clean edge to sew and anchor back into the bone. This changed my draw length to actually be longer because the...

    Skre Gear Price Drop

    I bought a bunch of Skre gear two years ago. I love the quality, the fit to a degree ( pants are long and a bit baggy) vests and jackets are good as are the merino layers. The warmth of the merino base and mid layers are absolutely fantastic as are the Hard Scrabble and Kodiak pants in the cold...

    Which down pants?

    I just bought a set of Skre Ptarmigan down pants and jacket. I also ordered a pair of down quilted booties after a friend's recommendation who is out in the cold more often than myself. I sleep in a Nemo 15F down bag during the colder months. Depending on the nigh time temps, usually a merino...

    Need help with building new arrows for my DW and DL

    Thank you guys for all of your input. Definitely strong pertinent information and I've thought about most of them already before posting my question. Here's my issue. Since my shoulder surgery, 70# draw weight ain't gonna happen no more!!! I'm at 60# and that seems ok and my limit. Because I...

    2024 Bows?

    Well Predator... Bows are subjective tools and I'd suggest you go to a good bow shop and see if there are enough demo bows available for you to try out and judge for yourself. I've had 3 Mathews bows in a row and truly enjoyed the first two, but the last one was the Monster model and although...

    Crispi Monaco Premium GTX Boots

    It's been 3 weeks since these were delivered. Been wearing them regularly and they are very comfortable on my feet. Whether running errands, walking around, wore them to church and some light treks, I'm comfortable! I can't stress just how good these feel on a daily basis so I'm offering this...

    Ditching Hanwag, need boot suggestions please.

    I've been using Hanwag Ancash and Alverstone II GTX. I love them both. The Alverstone II seem a little more flex friendly when I use them vs the Ancash and lighter to wear per boot weight. I did just buy a pair of Crispi Nevadas and Shimeks...reason is as my feet age, the Crispis seem easier to...

    Crispi Shimek GTX Review ***Updated 01/20/24***

    I just bought a pair as well. I'm wearing Crispi Nevadas now and using Monaco GTX for light hiking and around town. I'm looking forward to your experience with these. As I use mine, I'll post as well. Good luck with them. They do feel awesome out of the box!

    2024 Bows?

    I'll never dismiss a Mathews as less anything. They produce GREAT bows however...after 4 Mathews bows in my hunting history, I switched to Bowtech because of feel and draw cycle. No two bowhunters are going to feel a bow the exact same way. It is a very SUBJECTIVE opinion, individual to...

    2024 Bows?

    I shot Mathews for a while. Outback, Switchback< Drenalin and then Monster. All shot well and honestly, the monster was a monster to draw and hold but was very fast! I went from Hoyt to Mathews and then in 2018 Purchased my Bowtech Realm, sold the Mathews bows and never looked back. Shooting...

    Need help with building new arrows for my DW and DL

    Good morning... I'm finally returning to bow hunting with a compound bow after a serious reconstruction of my Rt shoulder 3 years ago. I had to resort to a crossbow for 3 years because I could not draw a bow or shoot a 12ga or hunting rifle! The time has come where I can return to my previous...
