    Random Safety Question Opinion

    Nothing should happen, but you have no idea if someone is going to draw. It’s not like drawing and releasing take a long time. To me it’s similar to a gun that’s unloaded being pointed behind the firing line. If their backs were to you, the concern is would the person draw at some point. You...

    Ah the mind games we play on ourselves

    I have a short draw so poundage is the easy way to make up for it, and I still don’t worry too much. I think of it like working out: form matters way more than weight. If I could have perfect form and consistently shoot 80lbs I would. I’m not there and there’s no reason to push it. I shoot ~150...

    Mathew’s lift speed at 25”DL?

    You really can’t compare the longer draws and attempt to extrapolate what a shorter draw length would do. The idea of taking 15fps off per inch is good in theory, terrible in reality. Each cam is going to be different, and as a shorter draw person myself it can be hard to find someone who has...

    WTS/WTT Stone Glacier Helio Pullover

    Have a brand new with tags helio pullover in large. It’s a little big on me. Would like to trade for a medium or sell for $100.

    polarized sunglasses

    Prefer Maui Jim’s, but haven’t given costas a full trial. Just did some quick 5 min testing at a store, so no water or reflections. I don’t think you can go wrong with either: it wasn’t that that Maui jims were better, I was just used to the feel on the face. I do have very sensitive eyes and...

    WTB Meopta Meostar 15x56

    As long as the glass is good I don’t mind the case having some marks. I treat my gear well, but also use it so it’s going to have some wear on the outside after being with me for a bit.

    Food Recommendations for staying full and losing weight

    Everyone is different, but I significantly changed my diet due to some medical concerns (not so much weight related). Vegetables have taken a much larger role in my meals, specifications leafy greens. Took me a week to get used to it, and now I’m at the point I’m really enjoying my meals again...

    What vanes do you all use?

    I went with the 4FP65s. Kicking myself for not going with this when I first discovered them. Do wish I could order a sample of a few different ones to test, but that’s ok. These work, may be better options, but don’t think I’ll find out 😂. Between these and glue ins it couldn’t be easier.

    Multiple bows?

    Currently have three, but want to get down to one. Two old (2012sh) compounds that i basically have to give away because they are old, and two newer bows. I’ll decide between the two new ones and only keep one.

    What vanes do you all use?

    Switched to ez-vanes in a four fletch. Couldn’t be more pleased. Pulled one through a target yesterday and seems no worse for the wear. I’ll not be going back to regular fletching. I think I spent more time getting the logo off the shafts than setting the vanes and points.

    Release Recommendations

    I’d say in some cases they are even easier to punch. Blank bale to get over the punching.

    Borah UL Bivy - Regular or wide?

    I think you could get by with a regular. I use a wide pad with a regular width (but short length) and never have felt like it was too tight. Still enough room for my shoes and other miscellaneous items inside. 5’7” 150lbs, small shoulders - use a wide pad because I like comfort.

    Which sight?

    Really like the option canyon pounder. I had a lot of hesitation because I couldn’t handle one before buying, but love it. It’s heavy, no getting around that…

    Nemo Hornet Elite Osmo 1P Tent Review: Updated with Review

    Nice! I have an older 2p hornet and love it. Don’t use it too often unless I’m being lazy as I prefer my bivy/tarp set up, but it’s awesome. Been through quite a few major wind events and storms while backpacking.

    What's your lightest arrow for hunting?

    For glue ins I am using gorila glue. So far no issues and it’s dirt cheap. Little disappointed in the last evolution heads I got as they had some chattering and were very dull. The mechanicals are a pain to sharpen, but got them to where I’m comfortable. May give the Valkyrie system a try next...

    Release Recommendations

    Releases are so personal it’s impossible to get an idea without touching and practicing with one. I have a Stan sx3 and recently picked up a Carter revelation. The Stan fits my hand great while the Carter is currently “ok”, but that’s likely due to surgery and me not being able to shoot as it...
