    Long Term Repercussions of Sports

    This is cool to see, my exact feelings on this topic. I did motor cross (had some bad wrecks), baseball, only 1 year of football thank God, and a lot of general jacka**ery. I also am a heavy equipment mechanic so I have an active and physical job. I’m hoping to get into something easier on the...

    Thumb Releases

    I’m a big fan of Carter releases. Unfortunately they aren’t super common to have on hand at shops, in my area at least. I’ve become a big fan of try before you buy after buying and selling a lot.

    Changing tune for different releases

    Mine is the magnetic style. Totally could just be the release design, it opens the opposite direction of my thumb button and has a much beefier hook than my hinge.

    Changing tune for different releases

    Dang, D loop torque didn’t even come to mind for me lol. Totally makes sense, releases held at an angle with hand helds and flat with the index.

    Changing tune for different releases

    When I got my bow I tuned it using my hand held releases and have been shooting hand helds for years. I’ve recently been shooting a Carter rx-1 index release as I feel like for hunting an index release is hard to beat. However I shot my bow through paper once just to double check everything...

    BT Sr350, ss34, Hoyt vtm, Mathews phase 4

    Yeah it's super dead. That's really how I ended up with it. I was pretty decided on buying a PSE but when I shot everything next to the phase 4 nothing felt right with how dead it was. However I didn't shoot a VTM or RX7. I had just sold a ventum 33 and wanted to try a different brand than hoyt...

    BT Sr350, ss34, Hoyt vtm, Mathews phase 4

    Can’t go wrong with any of them. I went home with a phase 4 33 this year. But if I did it all over again good chance I would leave with something else. Really I want one of each haha.

    What arrows are you shooting...not weight but brand

    Shooting victory vf tko right now, they are good tough arrows. I’ll probably try something different tho next time around, either regular 5mm rip or Easton axis. I don’t want to spend 20$ a shaft for rip tko or anything. I prefer to stay closer to 10$ for a bare shaft.

    What release are you hunting with 2023

    I picked up a carter rx1 and I think that's what I'll be hunting with. It was between that and my hinge. I feel like the rx1 will be much better in hunting situations than a hinge and I don't really shoot it any worse than a hinge or thumb.

    Mathews atlas arrow question

    This thread makes me wish I had a long or even just longer draw length lol

    Mathews atlas arrow question

    Personally I probably wouldn't change anything. That thing is probably still faster than the average bowhunters set up with a 33inch draw. Any idea of FPS?

    What release are you hunting with 2023

    Glad this thread is still going! I’m not even sure what I’m hunting with this year. Shot a 3D this morning mostly with a Carter target 3 but shot a few targets with tru fire sear hinge.

    What release are you hunting with 2023

    I'm the same way, can't stand long neck releases or I'd probably have the ultra view. The same reason is why I don't like my tru fire sear hinge. I don't like my anchor with a hinge as much as a thumb anyways, it feels weird to me to try to anchor when holding more tension on my pointer finger...

    What release are you hunting with 2023

    I hear ya, people often talk about target panic saying “I beat it” for me it’s more some days I have it some days I don’t haha

    What release are you hunting with 2023

    The like mike 2 is the only high end index I’ve had, but I would definitely recommend it.

    I know I'm opening a can of worms here, but new bow suggestions?

    I agree, I’ve never thought about hand shock before, but have never really had a bow that had very much. It was just so obvious when shooting the omen and phase 4 side by side. I’m pretty happy with the Mathew’s but I still want an omen lol

    What release are you hunting with 2023

    I sold a like mike 2 a couple months ago and wish I wouldn’t have. I think I’m more accurate with my thumb but feel like an index is kind of unbeatable for a lot of hunting situations.

    What release are you hunting with 2023

    What release is everyone hunting with this year? Is it different than the release you shoot for the rest of the year? (3d or target)
