    What's your lightest arrow for hunting?

    I got to 450 using a 26" sirius orion with a 110 gr ethics insert/collar and a 100gr tip. 3 fletch TAC driver vanes as well.. I don't disagree with your logic on poundage and am a firm believer in shooting what's comfortable. I do think that a bit heavier arrow would give you more forgiveness...

    What's your lightest arrow for hunting?

    Lightest arrow I’ve killed elk with was around 425 grains with a mechanical (1.5” schwacker). That was with a 75#, 29.5” draw. Standard diameter arrow. 50 yard broadside shot right into lungs. Didn’t get a pass-through but recovered the animal after 200 yards or so. Wasn’t super pleased with the...

    Grizzlies in the bighorns

    So I guess we're arguing that the one grizzly who happened to be caught killing livestock made it 75+ miles across the 'prairie,' but just happened to be killed as he stopped for a bite 10 miles from the base of the mountains before he made it? Similar story with the other confirmed grizzly in...

    Sirius Orion Reviews

    Thanks for the info. Were you breaking shafts often with the Orions? Any instances where the Apollo holds up that an Orion would have broke?

    Sirius Orion Reviews

    Pretty strongly considering the switch to micro's and the sirius orion has caught my eye. Curious what everyone's experience with them is. I'm mostly interested in durability when hitting something hard. I'm also considering Day Six as another option. I have heard great things about the Day...

    floater pin preference?

    I've been having the exact same thought. I really like the idea of having a second yardage for reference so you can make adjustments if the animal moves off somewhat as you described. Seems to me that your slider pin would be more centered in the housing as well. Pretty sure that this is the...

    New vs used bows

    I’ve purchased both new and used over the years. For the situation you describe, I’d suggest going with a year or two old used bow. With a quick visual inspection (the right pictures can work) you can tell how the bow’s been treated. Many many guys out there upgrade to a new flagship every year...

    Why are people so unkind

    Wow, I'm hoping the commenters in support of the OP haven't taken the time to read the thread in question. There is absolutely nobody being "unkind." I usually think unkind thoughts at his type of post (as I'm sure many of us do) but the reply's were quite civil and cordial. I'm curious how a...

    Archery Vendors / Manufacturers

    Totally agree with this post. I recently made a similar thread about Mathews CS. I was disappointed with the "That's just how it is" responses, primarily because there are several outstanding companies out there. I will go out of my way to do business with companies who go above-and-beyond...

    Mathews Customer Service Feedback

    I appreciate all the feedback. To be clear, I wouldn't expect the manufacturer to ship any random bow part due to a customer's preference, but I do feel that mods (the suggestion of top hats is a great point too) would be an obvious exception. Again, I feel that this type situation would cost...

    Mathews Customer Service Feedback

    Just curious how everyone's experience with Mathews customer service (CS) has been. I recently purchased a brand new V3X from a dealer (Scheels) around 2 hours from my home. I wanted 75# mods which they didn't have on hand. Due to the proximity from home I opted to take the bow with 70# mods...
