    Best bow strings

    I tried the gas ghost xv camo strings, the first set they sent me fit perfect, my bow tuned right up with them, but they had the servings incorrect on one of the cables and they had to send me out a new set, those ones were a hair long and I just couldnt ever get them to tune well once I got my...

    Synumn bow press for newer Mathews(VXR) and Bowtech Realm?

    Also, for me at least, I found that once I had a press, I used it much more often than I thought I would.

    Hoyt RX4 tuning questions

    a few hours away from a shop is a perfect reason for you and your buddy to go half’s on a press. Time and gas and it’s paid for in a trip, if not 2.

    Which flies do I bring to CO ?

    only thing I would add is a parachute Adams and a parachute gnat for high mountain lakes, I like the white on the parachute so I can see the dang thing!

    My string snapped! DCS Archery Bowstrings - Or another?

    Not Buckslayers fault, but I ordered a set from them, he doesnt send shipping information, and I have trouble with mail carriers delivering mail to the wrong house, or just leaving packages on the porch to blow away in the wind. After a couple weeks of hearing nothing, I reached out to...

    If you thought OHVs on closed roads were bad, check this out.

    I remember my dad joking about having a stack of $5's on the dash board to hand to troopers just in case. Although I think the last ticket I got in Montana I paid $25 or $50, super low... As far as the fine schedule based on income...might as well just go to full blown communism... Class...

    String replacement: Shop or DIY?

    I think it’s worth it, if you factor in trips to the shop, time spent at the shop, how much they charge each time you’re in there. Different clowns, different circus, but like said above, I don’t let anyone work in my bow. 2-3 times of them messing something up and having to keep my bow for a...

    String replacement: Shop or DIY?

    I’d say if your string doesn’t appear to be frayed or serving coming apart anywhere, practice twisting your cables to get your bow back into spec with your old strings, get a new set if that doesn’t work out. Gotta learn somehow and not that there aren’t good shops out there, but you got a press...

    String replacement: Shop or DIY?

    It’s not necessarily that you would need a new set, but you most likely have creep and need to twist your cables to get them back to spec length. You need a press, but also a draw board to check cam timing.

    Best release for new archer?

    whoah! To the OP, I don’t think you can go wrong with a silverback or an evolution, or any other tension activated release. My brother is just now beginning his archery addiction, I’ve started him on an evolution. I disagree with the notion that it will create panic, provided you manage your...

    Buying a new truck or a used one?

    I just traded my 2015 tundra in for a 19 Cummins 2500, I took the 0% interest. Finding a new 19 this far into 2020 and the 0% interest were the main reasons I did it, but they also gave me 24k trade on my tundra, which was paid off. Paid off my wife’s 2019 Tahoe in the process to save the...

    Broadhead alignment

    If you use arrows that have a HIT insert, you can align them using a squaring tool and slowly take material off the end of the arrow until you can tighten your head down to alignment. that said, I don’t bother with it...

    Buying a new truck or a used one?

    Yeah, and Oregon is not friendly to real estate investing. The market in CO is pretty high too, that’s why I shop a few hundred miles away... Big hint for some people who think their local market has too high a barrier of entry....nothing says you can’t live in one market and invest in...

    Buying a new truck or a used one?

    Option 2a. Invest the money in a down payment on a second house, let the rent money pay the mortgage and some of the truck payment. After the truck is paid off, have monthly cash flow from your rental income.

    What are you doing during virtual meetings?

    I have been working from home and have my desk/office set up right next to my bow press and work bench. Working on bows while listening in on conference calls and I don't drink, but I like to count all the corporate buzzwords people use over and over and imagine how hammered I'd be if I made a...
