    What vanes should I run?

    Ditching the lighted nocks is an easy way to lose weight and pick up FOC. But since that’s not what you asked for I would say to ditch the wrap and switch to a 3 fletch. I’ve really liked the AAE max stealths with a helical. Have had no problem steering Exodus out to 70-80 yards with that set...

    Getting paid ! Construction industry.

    Need payment terms in the contract and a way to enforce them. It's also very common for companies to offer discounts to incentive faster payment if you're willing to trade cash flow for slightly less revenue. Depending on the size of your operation, customers, and your financial controls this...

    When is it time to upgrade?

    If your confidence in your shooting is faltering at all or you’re questioning your equipment’s reliability or durability I would lean towards upgrading something (bow and/or even just accessories). In my opinion this game is mostly mental so doing whatever you need to do to have 100% confidence...

    Pelican air 1745 vs kuiu hard case

    No experience with these directly but the KUIU is manufactured by SKB and I’ve had great luck my SKB double. Well made and has held up over several trips so far. My thought is you’re probably paying the oversized luggage fee regardless of case which is part of why I went for a big double. If I’m...

    Retuned and lost a lot of sight tape yardage?

    Thanks guys. Bow is shooting within 2 fps of where it was before swapping strings since setup is the same so trajectory should be roughly the same. MattB- to your point my “loss of range” isn’t due to speed but more in where my sight/peep are starting which will limit how low I can drop the...

    Retuned and lost a lot of sight tape yardage?

    Hoping some of you can help me figure this out. I put new strings and cables on my bow and set about tuning it the way I have in the past. I will list my setup and tuning steps below but the short of it is that after tuning I have lost a lot of range on my sight tape (sight set to what used to...

    2024 Elk Meat Transport Strategy

    https://thewildlifedelivers.com/ Have used this once before for a mount. Says they do frozen meat as well. It may not be on your timetable but it’s a cost effective option if you have the meat processed.

    Any physical therapists on here? Hamstring rehab question

    Have a pretty extensive history of hamstring injuries resulting from sprinting in college. The link below closely mirrors what our rehab program looked like. If it’s not too bad you can likely jump in at phase 2 or at the very least start lightly biking to keep the tissue loose and promote...

    What is your ideal Mule Deer Arrow Setup

    I’ve only shot one mule deer with a bow (but a bunch of whitetails) so take it with a grain of salt but I would say 450-550 grain arrow depending on your setup with a good broadhead (fixed is my preference) and 10-15% FOC is a good area to be around. Use what tunes and shoots well for you...

    Ultraview bow sight

    I don’t plan on purchasing one, think it’s overpriced, and agree saying cold, rain, and wind void the warranty is odd considering it’s expected to be used hunting, but it’s likely legal language to protect the company from customers abusing the warranty. I just checked HHA’s site and...

    Archery release for my 12yo?

    I would recommend a hinge or tension release. If I had known better or been taught by someone who knew how to properly shoot, I can’t imagine the amount of frustration I would have saved myself and how much sooner I would have been shooting better. Basically relearned how to shoot a bow after...

    GAS Strings

    I believe the ghost xv uses a newer fiber vs the 452x in the high octane strings. The XV are supposed to be a little more stable with less stretch but both receive the same pre-stretch treatment at the factory so who knows. I’ve had very good luck with the high octane strings.

    Lock on bow case while flying

    I flew with my bow for the first time last year and was also worried after reading conflicting information regarding using TSA vs. non-TSA locks. I ultimately showed up to the the airport with 4 non-TSA padlocks and 4 TSA locks so I could comply with what I was told. Upon arrival, TSA saw my...

    Long draw hunter looking at upgrading bows

    Hoyt Highline is another option that would fit you. No personal experience, but have run into a guy at the range a couple times that seems to really like his.
