Put my 3D arrows together yesterday and first three shots at 5 yards.
Bow feels/sounds the same with the lighter arrows.
Did more groups and consistent. When it did tear, it was slightly nock left.
Shot the bareshaft hunting arrow at 10 yards. Slightly nock left.
So far tuning has...
I’m shooting the #80. The cycle is really smooth. Tightens up when the cams turn over. As I shoot more and more the smoother it seems to feel.
I’m trying to acquired a chrono to get speeds, but haven’t got it done yet.
Everything I have seen the bow is very efficient with heavy arrows. That...
Tied in my peep and re-tied in a new d-loop. Put bow back in vice and made sure everything was still level. Put some bare-shafts through paper @ 5 yards.
Started out nock low and adjusted rest vertically prior to being concerned with horizontal.
Was looking pretty good outside that first...
Curious on the quantity folks run through on products like this. I have always carried two forms of ignition (Lighter and Waterproof Matches) have packed the Vaseline cotton-balls a couple times but have never had to actually use anything other than what kindling is available to get a fire...
I used the smack down pro on my last bow. Switched to the Hamskea for the micro adjustment. Because small changes in the rest lead to big changes in arrow flight I really wanted better adjustment.
The Trophy Taker worked well for me. The only issue I had was stripping the screw that holds the...
It had been a super slow process. Not enough time to really devote right now. I dialed the poundage down three turns on each limb and have been blind bailing to get used to the feel. About 18 arrows a day. Right now I am one full turn off max. At the higher poundage the draw cycle is a little...
I ordered mine with 80lbs. Came in at 82.
I haven’t shot since August so I turned it down (3 turns on each limb). Per Prime, each turn on limb bolt is 3-5 lbs.
Haven’t put it on my draw board yet, but I think I am in between 72-75lb right now.
Trying to work my way up if needed.
I like...
Correct, the molded hood moves up and down the bar. I have it fully extended now and like the feel of it.
Machined version was the first go. Guy I spoke to on phone said almost all of them go out with Molded hoods.

Hoping the tuning comes easy to me.
Just need more hours in the day.....
This setup is coming in slightly heavier than my old one. So really glad I shaved some weight by not having the stab/tight spot combo. The weight with the quivilizer is definitely pulled forward and the bow balances...
I went with molded hood. Called Option Archery prior to purchase to get a better sense of the difference. Just didn’t see the value of the machined hood for the extra cost. If I ever change my mind or the molded hood “wears” out (Not sure how that will happen) I can always go purchase the...
They have a 0 degree bag out too. More down and more weight.
With you on a bag that keeps the wife warm. Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

Looking great so far. Setting new standards for gear tests. From here on out I expect all tests to be done in the most miserable circumstances possible! The theme can be, “Robby gets miserable so the rest of us don’t”.
This is the year of the new sleeping bag for me. Have had my eye on the...
