    OCD Tuning Headaches

    I changed top hats on my vertix with my bowmaster. Are there better presses? Yes. Will a bowmaster do everything on every bow? NO! However, I have done everything I have needed (changing strings, limbs, and top hats) on 10+ bows with the bowmaster so it has worked for me.

    OCD Tuning Headaches

    My Dad, brother and I went splits on an apple press years ago. Then bows changed and the press didn't work anymore, so I just bought a bowmaster. I have used that for a long time to tune multiple bows. Sure it would be cool to have an awesome press set-up but I have done everything I have wanted...

    Seek Outside Guardian Sneak Peek

    Good improvements 1. I like the shorter vestibules, easier to reach out to the door 2. Taking space from the vestibule and putting it in the sleeping area, smart 3. Since the ridgeline between the poles is longer they made that v design to keep tension, excellent 4. Doors open higher - awesome...

    Y’all think Ammo is bad? - EDIT: Baby Formula Shortage, Rokslide is AWESOME

    My Wife tried like hell to breast feed and she paid dearly. We had to do formula. Would have sucked to be wondering if it would be available. Good luck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Am I out of my mind for thinking about sheep?

    Not one bit crazy to think you can do this. Last year I took a first-time hunter on a stone sheep hunt. On day 8, 17 miles from the trailhead, he shot his first animal, a 9-year-old stone sheep.

    This is our year, GO LEAFS! actually, I'm terrified of the Lightening, they have all the history to pull through and the Leafs have the opposite. Here's to hoping.

    Mathews Switchweight Mods Shooting Heavy?

    You can change the weight by twisting the cables as well. My 70 lb Vertix is at 71 lbs. I'm pretty sure my 75 lbs mods moved between 75 and 77 when twisting the cables.

    First time building arrows

    any reason why you have the fletching so far forward? The further forward they are the less effect they have at stabilizing. I wonder how far forward you need to go to where that starts to matter.

    Hamskea Epsilon Mathews mount on older models

    Thanks, Billy I would appreciate it if you could give me a measurement. When looking at pictures it looks the same but like you said there is no adjustment so it needs to be exact.

    Hamskea Epsilon Mathews mount on older models

    Hello, has anyone tried using the Mathews mount to attach their Epsilon to a vertix or maybe a traverse? I emailed Hamskea and they said the mount is not APPROVED for the 2020 or 2019 vertix. I asked why its not approved but they haven't got back to me. One of their marketing pitches is that...

    My guess is that they need to be that low to effectively stake them to the ground. Once they get higher up the only way to pull them "out" would be to use a stick.

    Sleeping in Puffy Layers without a sleeping bag

    I have not done it but these are thoughts. I would never consider using my puffies as my only sleep option. If I did I would still have a bivy for sleeping to try and trap the heat. I have considered adding puffy pants to my kit and then taking a lighter sleeping bag. This way there would be...
