    KISS hunting bow

    I’ve been slowly refining my bows to increase lethality. Saddle hunters by their very nature seem to be an independent thinking bunch.

    Saddle Durability

    I understand that this may be a difficult question as the Mantis hasn’t been out yet to truly get a good gage on durability. However, I own a Kestrel that I bought this spring and can tell already that this thing is built to last. The Mantis has peaked my interest due to its minimalist styling...

    Greetings from upstate NY

    Hey guys, I’ve lurked for a while and figured I’d finally join in. Some quick background on me: I’m a professional firefighter in upstate NY.
