    Plucking

    Is you string hand involuntarily dropping to your shoulder when you release, if no, then you aren't doing a rotational release and instead are probably doing a shoulder pull, if yes, then make sure your thumb is in your palm, your wrist is relaxed, most of the string weight on your middle...

    USAFA Archery Range

    Guess not, but if you're ever up north with your bow hit me up, I can get us into the range at golden, I do my very best to not go to the springs!

    Do you unstring your recurve or not?

    Only for extended travel, like anything other than driving the 15 minutes to the 3d range. I've learned when traveling on rough roads unless the bow is in a very stable position where it can't shift, you might end up at your destination with a twisted limb, happened twice to me, both times I...

    ISO Qarbon Nano Longbow RH 50+#

    That's the best price I've seen for a set of those, I watched for them for a while, I hear they will fit on A&H risers and i have an A&H riser that I wanted a cheap set of limbs for because it's easier to sell a whole bow than a riser alone, finally gave up and put the riser on consignment a...

    Is my nocking point too high?

    I don't know what he used, but if you can get your hands on some glue on Simmons safaris, you could various weight broadhead adapters to make a wide range of heads to tune with, that fit that bill

    Is my nocking point too high?

    There's no formula I know of, it's generally 5/8" inch on virtually every bow I've tuned, it's a matter of that's where it will need to be because of the way bows are tillered, you may see a little variation from there and that's why you tune. This isn't something I figured out on my own...

    Wns c5 motive limbs

    I have no idea, but if you don't get an answer here, there's an ilf hunter group on Facebook if you do that, and then the tradtalk forum seems to have a lot of ILF guys on it. Good luck!

    Longbow Styles Explained?

    Shot a couple of borders, wasn't impressed, don't think I've shot a San Marco, not sure about the Harrison, I live a few minutes away from rmsgear and have absolutely know idea what all I've shot, but it's a lot of them! Lot of them shoot pretty good but their grips suck to me!

    Deepfreeze: A Late Season Bowhunt

    Sweet! Deer migrate out of my area I can hunt as soon as rut is over so the late season is devoid of deer. I walked several miles in 2 day old snow a few years back and didn't cut one set of tracks! Literally across the street in the old state park which is a different unit, late season ain't...

    Does longer draw mean more power?

    Tom Clum and his boys tested some of this a while back and as I remember him telling me, one inch of draw is worth about ten pounds of draw weight, never quite figured out if that was from the same bow etc. But yeah, 50@31 will send the same arrow significantly faster than 50@28 and it's the...

    Selway quiver guys

    This^^^ I personally have never used their strap on model, I have several sliders and quick disconnect. I like the quick disconnect the best. Their quivers are made of rawhide and it's just naturally going to vary, call them, they might be able to help you out there, also sometimes quivers come...

    Poison Dart Bows, Wood Suggestions?

    No I don't, but Buddy or Tom might, but you could just Google Juniper Laminate and probably get a pretty good idea, I'm really partial to Mango Veneers on my Toelkes, might see if Buddy has any of that
