    Arrow wrap length overlapping arrow rest

    Come on, who hasn't bought the "magnums" when we were in college and left them in a conspicuous place when company was over.

    Serrated or Straight Edge Broadheads ?

    I'm not sure if this is worth much in terms of broadheads, but one advantage of serrated edges is that they will stay sharper if they hit a hard object. Only the points will dull while the rest of the scalloped edges of the cut will remain sharp. This is one reason why a lot of steak...

    Stabiliser setups - pros and cons of quivalizer and rear stab vs front and rear bar with bow quiver

    It's definitely a "me" issue, no argument there. I just haven't found the perfect setup yet that I like above all else. The longer and heavier target bars are nice sometimes with the slower pin movement, but I tend to fatigue a little quicker. A shorter and lighter bar, or no bar, is nicer...

    Pressure signs with suppressor

    This seems fairly minor as far as overpressure is concerned, I wouldn't mess with it if you're leaving in a week unless it's something that you feel would screw with your shot confidence. Personally I'd shoot it for the hunt and then try to dial it back a bit later on

    I had no idea, thank you!

    Vehicles, you can fix?

    I'm a fan of the 90s K1500 frame pickups. Easy to work on and they're still fairly cheap compared to other pickup options

    Hanging Steel Targets

    2 T posts with a treated 2x4 across the top, then I'm hanging the gongs with some heavy gage wire or chain. The wire is nice for smaller gongs, it holds up to spall and you can replace it very quickly and cheap. I do have some old horse stall mats and tires I've been considering cutting up...

    Where to move?

    I have a similar field of work in Automation Engineering and might have a few areas you could consider. I currently work in Eastern Nebraska, and there is a surprising amount of automation work around the Lincoln and Omaha area. Being centrally located in the US is an advantage both for travel...

    Razor vs viper spotter

    I have an older Gen 1 Razor spotter, but it works excellent. My only complaint is that I'm always using it on the lowest settings, so I'm considering ditching it for a model with better FOV or a high power pair of binos.

    Stabiliser setups - pros and cons of quivalizer and rear stab vs front and rear bar with bow quiver

    That makes a lot of sense. Up until now I had only heard it was there just to balance out the bow's / shooter's natural cant

    Stabiliser setups - pros and cons of quivalizer and rear stab vs front and rear bar with bow quiver

    I keep going back and forth if I like a stabilizer or not. Some days I throw a stabilizer on and my group size instantly shrinks in half, and the next day I take it off and my group size doesn't change at all. I prefer a light bow, so I never throw on more than 3-5 oz total of weight between...

    Fixed broadhead tuning - longer distance

    I confirmed again that my BHs are hitting with my FPs at 70. I brought everything in to 30 yards and the BHs are still grouping with FPs, so my theory was wrong that the BHs would be grouping higher as I moved closer. Maybe I'll increase the distance back to 100 and check again tomorrow

    Fixed broadhead tuning - longer distance

    Generally I never touch a bareshaft once I broadhead tune, I was just curious how it would behave. I wasn't planning to change anything based on the bareshaft result at that distance. However, it did confirm that my rest position is launching a lower resistance projectile much higher than one...

    Fixed broadhead tuning - longer distance

    I heard some claims that some people are able to be successful at broadhead tuning at longer distances, so I decided to give it a shot. Generally I would get my bow paper tuned, then bareshaft tuned at 20, then dialed the broadhead at 30 (which generally didn't take much if any rest adjustment...
