    Wrist sprain, adaptive ideas?

    A few days ago I was mountain biking and bit off a bit more than I could chew on a big jump and ended up getting kicked over the bars. I sprained my wrist real bad (and busted up a bunch of other places). What is the best way to work back into exercise? Do I lower the volume? Wrap it up real...

    For what it's worth I've had to replace the alternators on every Honda Ive owned. Although they were all older than 5 years.

    Where to put weight, broadhead vs insert

    Maybe something is wonky with my release but I was shooting bareshaft darts to 20 yards and grouping as good as I can at 30 Edit- it's off a weather rest if that makes a difference

    Why did you start hunting Trad?

    2 more- I like shooting so when I'm scouting I'm stump shooting, love that. And most importantly I never kill anything so I might as well not kill anything with a trad bow and at least feel cool.

    Where to put weight, broadhead vs insert

    Shot more today, new point on went from 31 yards to 28, (bummer). Arrow weight went up 510or so. Arrows flew good and grouped at 30 for me I still wasn't shooting great though so I didn't put on broadheads yet. New question! I got a ton of arm slap today, would this be because of adding the...

    Where to put weight, broadhead vs insert

    Random follow up I tried again with weedwacker string because I was thinking the rope was too tightly in the arrow making it act stiffer. I wasnt shooting great overall today (and didnt put a broadhead on yet) but it seemed to fly MUCH more consistently. When Im shooting better I will follow up...

    Where to put weight, broadhead vs insert

    Ah that's true, I'm at the lower end, I have the field point kit, I guess I will play around with how much I can get away with based on how much room I have to chop.

    Where to put weight, broadhead vs insert

    Alright, tried the rope insert thing. Arrows flew like complete dog crap. If I did everything exactly perfect I could sort of get them to group at 20. That did not stand with broadheads. I'll chalk this up to a lesson well learned. On the flip side I do think want to bump up my weight some...

    Where to put weight, broadhead vs insert

    I just tried uploading a photo from my phone but it says it's too large, arrow is just about dead straight

    Where to put weight, broadhead vs insert

    hmmm I am going to try this- curious how it will add weight/FOC but not affect flight? all things equal I thought more weight forward would weaken the spine?

    Where to put weight, broadhead vs insert

    Correct- Im still pretty new to the trad game but my 3 kills last year resulted in 2 clean passthroughs and one that held up but still gave me 2 holes. I know its light but I am only shooting whitetail right now. I have some room to chop more off the arrow- should I shorten them and bump up...

    Where to put weight, broadhead vs insert

    I'm about to order more arrows. Current set up is black eagle vintage 400 cut to 28.5 with the regular inserts, 50 grain screw in and 100 grain heads. 45lb bow Is there any benefit to skipping the inserts and going with heavier heads? Also please don't crap on my set up, I have broadheads and...
