    Parallel limb bows dont need weight forward

    Concur 100% with J Daddy, I run the 6" Sport Hunter with 6 weights on the back and a 10" sport hunter with 2 weights up front on my carbon element. I run the strong arm mount for the side bar and a QD for the front bar. This set up keeps the front stabilizer just under 12" total. I do find...

    What sight is everyone running

    Tightspot Quiver and MBG Ascent Sight Mount Hey Swat, Not sure about the CBE but the back end of the Ascent dovetail will run into the tightspot mounting bracket if you try to move the sight close into the riser. It works perfectly on my Element at 29.5" DL however. I run the 6" dovetail...

    Anyone know who has SLIK 624 CF in Stock?

    As an alternative you could get the Sirui t-1205x 5. A little more $ but you get greater stability and overall max height. It also is slighly more compact and the exact same weight as the 624cf. Mine has worked flawlessly.

    Broadhead Tuning Question

    Jmez we are pretty much on the same page and I agree with much of what you're saying. I too put a huge emphasis on my form and draw length than anything else. I don't put an emphasis in paper tuning anymore because it does not tell me all that much with a fletched arrow. Franklin mentioned he...

    Sirui Tripod and ball head

    I have had that tripod for a year now and use the outdoorsmans pan head on it. Super solid and very packable. Love it!

    Broadhead Tuning Question

    Jmez I used to feel that same way but I think yoke tuning with a bareshaft really is worth it! If you just walk back and then go to broadhead tuning you still have missed an opportunity to address both horizontal and vertical nock travel as the arrow leaves the string. I know you can get it...

Get draw length & dloop length dialed perfectly Set rest center shot using modified french tuning at 3 yds and 60 yards (quicker than walk back tuning) Yoke tune with at elast...

    Element/Injexion Issues...

    Hey Sorry Dreaming I just re-read my post and forgot to mention that but as OR Archer says of course you have to remove twists on one side of the yoke as you add to the other or you will get your limb geometry out of whack. Having a drawboard is a huge help when using this tuning method and I...

    Element/Injexion Issues...

    Frankin and Dreaming......On every CE RKT I have seen including mine if you align the top cam to be perfectly vertical at rest or full draw you will likely have horizontal nock travel issues and broadheads and bareshafts will impact to the right. Because of the stiffness of the riser, the A2A...

    Smart phone vs gps

    Flatlander, The iPhone 4 series units have a dedicated GPS chip which do not require cell service as long as it is not in Airplane mode as Pueblo stated you are good to go. I just used it for 4 scouting days in the San Juans last week and it worked perfectly. Like Pueblo I find it's pretty...

    Smart phone vs gps

    Neo Treks GPS

    Thanks Slim i was just trying to point this out to everyone because the way you worded your first post was a little sloppy and yup I know what cache means. My point was that only the accuterra maps are able to be "cached". In you original post you stated: "It will also cache google maps images...

    Neo Treks GPS

    Well I downloaded the app and paid the $20 and I guess I should have read the fine print first.. You got my attention when you mentioned the ability to cache google satellite images! Maybe the old version is different but just a heads up to others this app does NOT allow you to cache and save...

    Jared, I just went through this process last fall and heres my $.02. I too feel the outdoormans medium tripod is the standard for a bompbproof lightweight and versatile tripod. I was debating between it and the small outdoorsmans tripod and the outdoorsmans pan head. But... Carbon fiber...
