I’m dropping weight and going back to the same setup I shot prior.
46# ILF recurve
It's a 19" Dryad wood riser with Uukha Vx long ILF limbs making for a 64" recurve. String is 12 strand 652 endless that I make to fit. Accmos 400's cut 31" with a cheap 2 blade head.
Mathews lift 33 30.5 inch DL 65 lbs(will go back to 70 or 75 once my torn right bicep heals) GAS strings, tight spot airlock , 15 inch bee stinger 10 degree offset with 3 oz up front, black gold dual track sight. Arrows are gold tip kinetic pierce LRP 300 spine 28.5 with 160 grain Thrive glue in expandable broad heads, keaup lighted nocks, easy vanes out of Australia with a TAW is 460 grains 13.5 foc. Elk, Mulies and a bear if I can find one or get back to our baiting sight if the fire closures let up.
Bow setup has been the same as the last 2 years. It shoots really well for me and I'm mostly happy with it. The UV3 is leaving a lot to be desired with the pin brightness, so that's hopefully going to be swapped out soon.
- Mathews V3X 33, 75lbs @ 28.5", Landslyde/UV3 combo with the double pin, Hamskea Epsilon Rest, Cutter Stabilizers
- Easton Axis Long Range 4mm, 300 Spine, ~483 grains, 125gn Sevr Hybrids or Iron Will S125s. Shooting at 277 FPS
- 4 Fletch AAE Max Stealth
I didn't draw any tags this year, so it'll be OTC Mule/Cous deer in AZ. I amshooting the new Sevr Hybrids and will still have an Iron Will S125 in the quiver. My bareshafts, field points, Sevrs, and Iron Wills are all grouping together out to 50 yards, so I'm happy I have options on what to shoot.
A couple of pictures since I took my setup out on the weekend and killed some critters. I imagine I'll keep it like this for a fair while and it'll see use from now up to the fallow rut in April 2025 and further.
