    Trying out simpler longbows.

    I Had the same interest, and ended up purchasing a Galaxy Black Ridge 70" Longbow from Lancaster. Budget friendly at $179 shipped. https://www.lancasterarchery.com/galaxy-black-ridge-70-longbow.html My frame of comparison is my 60" Bodnik Slick Stick, and 64" Toelke Whip. The 70" is another...

    An adjustable sideplate shelf-shooting configuration I came up with. Used a broken elevated rest, and some Velcro.

    Galaxy 70" Longbow

    I have a few shorter longbows, but had an itch to try something longer, like at least 68". I saw this 70" longbow at Lancaster and decided to give it a try. For $179 delivered it sure is budget friendly. No, it doesn't compare to my Toelke Whip, but it is a nice shooter, and could hunt as...

    Chainsaw for the truck

    I have a Husky 455 Rancher saw for making firewood, For the unexpected road clearing drill. I keep a Silky Katanaboy 500 behind the seat, along with a Fiskars axe, and a log chain in back of the truck. The big Silky 500 is no joke, and the 650 is even more of a good thing. Testing the Silky...

    I started my traditional archery journey a couple years ago. I gained a lot of beginners knowledge from Greg Richards' site Trad Archery 101. Some good stuff presented in easy to follow style. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCl-LVJYEHvPXzVyrduIMtIg/videos

    So you want to shoot Trad

    Humans have been flinging arrows from bows for over 20,000 years. Some archeologist finds go back 50,000 to even 70,000 years ago. Don't get too caught up in the details. Learn the basics of form, get a light draw weight bow, around 30# or so, some arrows (500 spine 30" with 150gr up front...

    Wall tent stakes for logging road landings

    I ordered some of these 5/8" x 18" steel takes. They drive into most any soil. https://www.gettent.com/tents/5-8-x-18-tent-pin-painted-red.asp The website has other even larger stakes if you need them.

    Livability of a Seek Outside Redcliff

    I know the Redcliff is the shelter on your radar, but since you mentioned standing room, I'll share this too. I believe the 6-man peak height is roughly 12" taller than the Redcliff peak height. This is what the standing room looks like in the 6-man. I'm 6'3".

    Livability of a Seek Outside Redcliff

    6-man is a palace for one person, with a tall cot, and all your trash.

    Livability of a Seek Outside Redcliff

    Looks like a tipi, with those higher tie-out points. Maybe an 8-man? This is our 6-man SO, with two cots, Just a backyard space check.

    We're Screwed...

    This is far more than inclusion or equality. The left is transforming the CIA, FBI, Military, etc, to all be loyal to the radical left leadership and agenda.

    Livability of a Seek Outside Redcliff

    Wife and I use our 12-man when we want to bring everything along. It sounds ridiculous, but it fills up fast, and the table and cots cannot be too close to the perimeter due to slope of the fabric.

    Tuning Sanity Check

    I shoot a 45# Samick Discovery. Draw length 32", probably 55+ on the fingers. What works for me is a 32" 340 spine, with 250gr up front.

    Safari Tuff and Randy Cooling customer service

    Good deal. I have one of their tabs, and a side quiver. I'm very happy with both products. It's good to hear that the person behind the product is also solid.

    Tabs???

    Safari Tuff 3-under tab - A little stiff when new, but after some break-in, it's real good. American Bison 3-under O-ring tab - soft, easy break-in, works real good. But, the snap that holds the o-ring kind of wore out after a while. It comes unsnapped all the time now.
