Anyone interested in a new challenge?

This is a good idea and a good way to hold me accountable. I’m going to start tomorrow.

Trying something a bit different this year. Just swapped stuff over.

55# ish, 420ish gr arrow (way heavier than I first planned, but wanted to try something)

I have been gravitating more and more to fixed heads, I want as much forgiveness as possible since I can still only feel half my hand and don't know when my grip is right or wrong. So a bit slower will help with that, and heavy helical, tho I might try a little less and see how it is.

First shots out of this new hunting setup.



Made a gang adjustment on sight, was actually aiming at the little spec of dark in the guts so wasn't too bad.

No tuning yet really, just set CS, rest ballpark of where I normally have it, cam lean how it usually tunes.

Backed upto 45, put sight on 47 yards as it was on a bit faster setup and was pleased with what it did, little horizontal spread.



So, I have 6 shots through it now, probably shot this bow 80 times so far since I put new strings and cables on it, was also just shooting it backed out 2 turns around 45#.

6 shots was kinda enough for now. If it doesn't rain, might go back out.



This thing was my idea, so I'll post some pics once I get everything setup, y'all can see how much I suck.

Just figured I'd update it since its been a minute since I posted it.


This might lead to me having a bow tuned earlier than I have in a long time too, usually I'm helping everyone else leading upto season and it's day before opener I'm getting my junk set.

Looking good BG!
