  1. Recommendation for 12yr old girl's first bow

    My son has a mission kraze. Only takes about 2 minutes to adjust and it shoots great.
  2. Think of this when buying used carbon arrows! Ouch!

    If he had the wrong arrows it could happen. Also if they were used, it's possible that the previous owner had damaged the arrow previously and not known it. Another cause would be leaning them in a car or storage building where the temperatures getting extremely hot, this will cause them to...
  3. Destroyed an arrow...

    Congratulations. It gets expensive when you hit youer own arrows, that's why you shot with others and aim for theirs.:D
  4. My first compound bow

    You will get addicted to it. The key is a lot of practice, to develop muscle memory. Another trick that will help, is to come to full draw and aim at your target, but let someone else trigger your release without telling you it is going to happen. You will want every shot to feel that way. Also...
  5. Bow rankings

    ^^What he said^^ I have had the opportunity to shoot many different manufacturers bows over the years and can tell you that in today's market you can't go wrong with any of them. I have shot PSE bows for over 12 years and my wife and son shoot diamond and mission. You will hear good and bad...
  6. what would be...

    Truball or Scott. Find one that fits your hand and make sure the trigger is adjustable. I've been using a truball chappy boss for about 10 years, without any hiccups.
  7. Finally getting a new bow (UPDATED PICS)

    This thing is awesome, especially the skullworks camo. The let-off is taking me a bit to get used to, but she shoots great. Already running arrow shafts next to each other. It is definitely alot faster than the old firestorm. I'm using one pin out to 40 yards. Haven't set the others yet, that...
  8. Finally getting a new bow (UPDATED PICS)

    I have been shooting the same bow for 12+ years, a PSE Firestorm, and I feel it's time to upgrade. The last bow I even considered getting as a replacement was the DIAMOND Black Ice, until this weekend. I looked at a PSE Sinister in the skullworks camo and have to have it. I haven't kept up with...
  9. First deer of the season and buck tag #1 filled!

    Congrats! Looks like he's been fighting for territory.
  10. Killed a buck from the ground with my longbow this past weekend

    Congratulations. Definitely is an adrenaline rush to take one with a bow.
  11. Thinking of going bow only

    Regardless of which one you choose, you will find things you would like to change. Get it set up for you and enjoy. I catch flack for using an old pse firestorm, but I can hit a cd sized target at 100 yards.
  12. First bow kill

    Congratulations. The adrenaline rush of a bow kill is crazy. I love the challenge of drawing and swirling for the shot. You definitely earn everyone you get.
  13. Complete Newbie to Archery some help!

    Draw length is crucial to being able to shoot accurately. Once you get it set up to fit you and your sights set, then shot as much as possible. If you practice at a longer distance that you plan to shoot normally, it will make you more accurate. I used to routinely shot at 70-100 yards...
  14. Bow for wife question

    I bought one for my son Saturday. His draw is set at 23" & 40#. I took five minutes and changed it to fit me yesterday and it shot great. The bow shop showed me that one complete turn of the limb bolt was 2# change, using a scale. On the plus side, I'd she didn't like it, you will have a...
  15. Fletching jigs

    Thinking of buying a couple so more than one arrow can be fletched at a time.
  16. Fletching jigs

    I haven't kept up on the archery scene too much over the past 7-8 years and was looking to see what's new. Do they still make them for different sizes or do they have a universal model?
  17. What type of bow hunter are you?

    I like to spot and stalk, but my property is not large enough. I have a lock-on on one side of the property in a pine tree that I use and a two man ladder on the other side for me to take the kids in.
  18. Mission craze or riot

    Went by yesterday afternoon and picked one up. Had them put a loop and peep on and set the dress length/ weight to fit my son. He was shooting 2" groups at 20 yards, this was his first time shooting with a release. I shot it a few times to rough in the sights and it was really smooth. Thinking...
  19. Turning down poundage due to Torn left rotator cuff

    I would go a couple rounds on each bolt. They have to be even. And yes, it will fly apart if you unscrew it.
  20. Fletching jigs

    I'm looking to buy a jig to help save me some cash and maybe make a little. Between my family and inlaws there are 10 shooters. I was looking to see what everyone's thoughts were on the different kinds.
