    2025 Mathew’s Bows

    Glad to see that they finally caught up with their competitors and added the ability to horizontally tune cams with a press.

    Fighting boredom in all day sits.

    Read a book. In calm conditions I can hear a deer walking before I can see it from most of my stands, so I’m not worried about missing anything and read with abandon. When it’s windy or I’m hunting a stand with a longer range of view, I read a page, look up and scan the area, read another page...

    New to iPhone not receiving notifications

    I recently switched from Android to iPhone as well. I’ve been (unpleasantly) amazed at the simple convenience features iOS lacks compared to Android (no expandable clipboard, no universal split screen mode, can’t add text to your lock screen…but I digress). This method worked for me to enable...

    WTB Possible scammer - thoughts?

    100% scam. Broken language, immediately moving communication off the forum to text message, requesting a payment method with no buyer protection, requesting a deposit…all red flags. Welcome to the forum. The classifieds can be a great place to find deals but caution is always needed. Use extra...

    Selling older used trucks

    As a point of reference, I just bought a 2006 3rd gen 2500 4x4 manual with 177k miles for $15k at a local auction. It has a salvage title from a side impact collision that caved in the driver’s side rear door. If it had a clean title it probably would’ve brought $20k. FB Marketplace seems to be...

    Dewalt 20v Chainsaw

    Thanks OP for the heads up, I just ordered one. Ship to home option wasn’t free for me so I opted for free pickup at the local store.

    Stihl ms291 acting up

    I only run non-ethanol fuel in my saw (and only use Stihl fuel oil FWIW). Fuel line still rots in a matter of months🤷‍♂️

    Stihl ms291 acting up

    The fuel line between the tank and carb on my MS251 will get rotten and develop cracks and cause the saw to struggle above idle. I’ve tried OEM and knock-off replacement lines and haven’t found one yet that lasts. I‘ve resolved to just keep a few spares on hand at all times. Different saw and...

    New sight or new bow

    I agree with @sndmn11 …put a slider on the Legacy and see how you like it. A new sight is a lot cheaper than a new bow. If/when you get a new bow, you’ll probably want a new sight to go with it…go ahead and get a quality slider now, try it out on the Legacy, and transfer it to your next bow when...

    New sight or new bow

    What sight do you have now and how heavy is your arrow? A slider would give you more yardage assuming it has a larger housing and greater range of vertical adjustment than your current sight. You should be able to get beyond 50 yds with that bow and a slider sight assuming your arrow isn’t...

    Newb to Bow Hunting

    Keep it simple. A standard diameter (6.5mm/.245" ID) shaft of moderate gpi cut about an inch shorter than your draw length and weighted up to around 6-7 gpp (grains of total arrow weight per pound of draw weight) will give you a strong arrow with a good balance of weight and speed at a...

    Anybody ever regretted using Iodine tablets for water purification?

    I switched from iodine to liquid Aquamira (chlorine dioxide) years ago, and I won’t ever go back. Even with the neutralizer tablets, I dislike the taste of iodine-treated water. Chlorine dioxide has no flavor. FWIW I also run my water through a filter first (usually an MSR Trailshot) before I...

    Counter tops?

    Thanks again for the cleaner recommendation. I used it today on some stubborn stains on the quartz around my kitchen sink. A few drops of that Weiman stuff and a little scrubbing with a paper towel removed those stains like magic.

    September Truck must haves

    Amen to that. I’ve also recently started smearing a thin layer of anti-seize on the face of the wheel where it mates to the hub. Last time I rotated tires on my Expedition, all four wheels were stuck solid to the hubs. It took ratchet straps, a rubber mallet, and a fair bit of cursing to break...

    A health revolution brewing?

    Yes. Different vaccines have varying degrees of risk and benefit. There are some I’m okay with, and many I’m not.

    Arrow build question?

    High FOC isn’t detrimental if the arrow is spined stiff enough to handle the front end weight. 200 gr on the front and 17% FOC isn’t extreme…I would call that moderate to slightly high. What’s the static spine of your arrows (3 digit number printed on the shaft)…200, 250, 300, 350, or 400? And...

    Portable Generators--What Brand?

    Depends on what appliances and how many of them. 2200 watts gives you 18 amps to work with at 120 volts. A typical household fridge or freezer draws about 10 amps when the compressor first kicks on then levels off to about 5 amps of sustained draw. You could likely run two fridges or freezers...

    Arrow build question?

    Ignore kinetic energy. Once you pick your bow and set your draw weight and draw length, your KE is effectively fixed*. Arrow weight vs. speed is a continuous trade-off between the flatter trajectory of a lighter/faster arrow vs. the greater penetration potential of a heavier/slower arrow...
