    What let off are you shooting?

    I’m currently about 85, but I’m considering going to 80 to see if it helps me aim better with slower/less pin movement. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Do you carry a backup release?

    I have my primary Stan SX3 in my waistbelt pocket, a backup SX3 deep in my pack, and a Stan Element in my truck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Elite Remedy noise

    I don’t have a Remedy (which I love), but I have a Kure. Did you set the string stop, mor specifically the string gap at brace? I try for a paper thin gap. I also try to center the stop relative to the string. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Looking to scratch the compound bow itch…

    Zac is just about right. I bought a 2016 Elite Energy 35 for about $350 because they still carried the transferable warranty through that year. I bought it to learn to press a bow and work on my own equipment without the worry of breaking it. I already owned a release and still spent at least...

    Thoughts on this string?

    I change strings fairly often, just for the “insurance” against blowing up my bow. Strings and nocks would save a lot of heartache. Try Wicked Twisted Bowstrings. They build a great string set. I’d also say to try a set in one of Bloodline Fibers waxless materials. Feel free to use my 10% off...

    Arrow Selection - How do you decide?

    Standard diameter (.244”-.246”) inside diameter are fine for most. Getting the correct spine is the most important, while erroring on the side of stiffness. Straightness can matter. In general, buy the straightest arrows you can afford, typically .001”-.003” tolerance. I’d recommend determining...

    For the money, definitely hard to beat CBE Trek Pro Hybrid, or even the Engage Hybrid. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Arrow Weight

    You probably shouldn’t add more than 25 grains to that arrow up front before it may become too weak. (I’d have to run the numbers to have a better idea) IF you’re going to do that, I’d do it with a field point first, to see what you think about trajectory and grouping. There’s no right or...

    Sight input

    I haven’t had anything get loose on mine. Clicks are tight; screws hold. I was impressed enough by my first one over the last two seasons that I bought 2 more for my other bows. I bought an entry level CBE sight as well. It wasn’t bad at all for the price point. I used it on my backup bow...

    Hunting Arrow Length Poll

    I’m about 1.5”(arrow length = draw length) in front of my rest. That’s mostly to give myself the desired arrow weight and some wiggle room to modify the arrow build if necessary (i.e. halfout vs. HIT, cut some off, add some weight to the insert, etc.) I’m shooting .204” shafts so it’s not...

    Tuning discrepancy

    It may not be a “discrepancy”. What broadhead are you shooting? I wouldn’t worry “much” about things since your broadheads hit with field points out to 50 yards. You might just like at paper tears at varying distances 12, 15, and 20 yards. Arrow recovery could be delayed because of the dynamic...

    Semi-Budget arrow build

    Give a look to the Quakes from Element Archery, standard diameter arrow. The .300 spine are 10 gpi. Add 75-100 grain insert and 100-125 grain broadhead and you’re there. https://buyflyingarrow.com/quake-arrows-1/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Archers Advantage - How accurate on FPS and thus Spine Selection?

    He shoots mostly field, but a little bit of everything competitively. He’s multiple state championships and more podium finishes. He hunts as well. I’ve personally had success with everything from slightly weak to slightly stiff, from .204 ID to .246 ID to 26s. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Archers Advantage - How accurate on FPS and thus Spine Selection?

    Sounds like if your tape is accurate, so is the speed calculation. A very good competitive archer friend told me that he has bettter success with arrow tunes that are “slightly stiff” by AA calculations. @StraightWayOutdoors Straight Way Outdoors, Fulcrum Archery, Elite Archery, Upwind Odor...
