    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...

    What would you do for free gear?

    It seems that many people on this site are pretty hard on people who are making a living in the industry. Comments about being a sell-out to the highest bidder are thrown around regularly. BUT how many of us would do the exact same thing if we were in that situation? I'm sure many would admit...

    Culmination - youth bear success

    Just wanted to say thanks to the Rokslide community. This is the real reason we fuss over tuning, equipment, shooting form etc. My son has been very successful with a rifle but this is the first year he was ready to start using the bow. He got his first compound at 5 but never really mastered...

    New Spot hog sight

    Cameron Hanes was showing off his new hoyt and mentioned a new spot hogg sight that he can't fully show (nice marketing).

    Mathews Vertix switchweight cam review

    This spring I purchased a 2019 Mathews Vertix and have really put it through its paces and thought I would share my thoughts. First, I have shot a Hoyt for years but struggled to get my 2014 Carbon spyder turbo to shoot well. When I was looking for a new bow this spring the Mathews really stood...

    "Sheep are for Young Men" when hunting is more than just hunting

    A famous sheep hunter once said, “Sheep are for young men…” So naturally, I took my 12 yr old son to the remote northern mountains of British Columbia to hunt one of North America’s most sought after game animals, the Stone Sheep. Josh is precise, cautious, and has tremendous respect for...

    B.C. Archery Goat Hunt

    I am beyond blessed to live where I do. Mountains surround me, I can spot goats from my front deck, and the hunting opportunities seem endless. As someone who moved from the East, where these things were just dreams, there is not a day goes by that I take it for granted. This also gives me a...

    Hinge Release

    If you are wondering about a hinge release then go for it. I was on the fence and kind of reluctantly went for it and now I am so happy. I am a pretty good shot and have been at it for 15+ years, shot a bunch of competitions, and did pretty good. I studied everything with form and worked on my...
