    Horse bit?

    Can't disagree with anything mentioned above. I'd say majority of tack is about fitting it to the individual horse. There are some exceptions to this but bits are definitely not one. Like others have said, anything from rider experience, horse training, even the size of the horses mouth, etc...

    Favorite Knife Sharpeners for Field and Home

    I just purchased the work sharp field sharpener because of this thread. I am impressed. The ergonomics feel a little odd but that's to be expected for a small sharpener with many sharpening surfaces. It did however put a great edge on knives in no time. I would recommend to anyone.

    Best Binocular Harness/Case

    If you don't mind using a separate pouch why not run it on the side like in this video? IMO on the side is more user friendly. For me the additional bottom accessory pouch you are referring to, would be more useful for small lightweight items such as a lighter, headlamp, etc.

    Best Binocular Harness/Case

    I ran a Badlands harness for about 5 years. The magnets were a little too noisy for my liking and my binoculars would fall out when stalking unless I closed the case every time. When shopping for a new case, I personally was not impressed with the FHF given all the high praise and its price...

    Lowest gpi arrows

    How are the nocks on these? Seems like many who shoot BE arrows opt for different nocks.

    x3 on the Third Hand Hip Clip. Cheap, simple and it works.

    Kuiu Pro Bino Harness

    I was torn between these same options a couple of months ago. I wanted to like the AGC but couldn’t get over the lid opening up towards me. Ended up with the Kuiu and really like everything about it besides the front pocket being extremely tight. I plan to eventually run a chest holster...

    Hosking Chest Holster... First Impression

    Any fellow up review after using the holster? I'm really interested in these after seeing this. Looks to be a more affordable version of the Kenai.

    Arrow Setup for Short DL

    The difference between the set up on the GT and the Axis is pretty small. The two bottom images are from the phone app? Is it pretty helpful with stuff like this? Or is the computer software the way to go? The computer version just seems a little steep in price for a novice like me.

    Arrow Setup for Short DL

    Spine is my biggest worry as I feel I am on the border between two spines for a lot of the arrows I've looked into. Probably play it safe and go with the stiffer of the two but I'll call the arrow company and get their opinion. COC broadheads are all I've ever considered. Any specific ones you...

    Arrow Setup for Short DL

    Easton Axis were actually my first choice. It just seemed like with the heavier GPI I'd have to shoot a +450gr arrow to get near 12% FOC. Last year I shot 268 FPS and my fletching would start graising my adjustable sight at 70 yards, so I'd prefer to not go too much lower in speed. In the end, I...

    Arrow Setup for Short DL

    Curious, what's your opinion on length? Start as long as possible and trim until you find spine stiffness you are comfortable with? 26.5 inches is just what my nearest pro shop would cut my prior arrows to. Last year I shot QAD Exodus broadheads which put them really far into my riser. I was...

    Arrow Setup for Short DL

    Thanks all for the feedback! I am definitely open to shooting a heavier arrow for better penetration. The bow just shoots great for me around 265-275 FPS so I figured I should stay in that range. It will also be open land sage hunting so the shots may be further out without the chance to range...

    Arrow Setup for Short DL

    Seems like everyone here loves IW collars and inserts for small diameter arrows. They seem really expensive and complex to me, However majority of people seem to be concerned about arrow/outsert durability of these lightweight arrows. I'll take a look at the Focus system and nocks. Thanks!

    Arrow Setup for Short DL

    Hello, only been in the archery game for a year now. Looking to upgrade my hunting arrow setup for mule deer this year. My actual draw lenth is only 26 inches so I am limited to light weight arrows. Currently shooting: Gold Tip Hunter XT's 340's 26.5 inches carbon to carbon 125 grain tip...

    Perfect Out west rifle

    Another vote for 7mm mag or 300 win mag. Both will cover just about everything.

    Go to elk load?

    Barnes 290 grain T-EZ or TMZ (depending on the barrel fit) with blackhorn. I'd experiment with different amounts of powder in increments and see what groups the best.
