    Arrow / Bolt Weight Variation

    I do have a scale and have been learning about building custom arrows, but haven't gotten too far with that. I've also just started trying to nock tune.... need to build a paper tuning target holder. Where do you buy your arrow supplies from? On average how much does one of your hunting arrows...

    Arrow / Bolt Weight Variation

    Thanks all. I've been learning a lot about shaft and nock tuning also weight matching to the crossbow- not matching the bolts to each other but finding the weight the weight that the xbow shoots well. Ranch fairy on youtube has some great tuning content and the single bevel broadheads !

    Arrow / Bolt Weight Variation

    I reworked my bag target using two planks and some ratchet straps to compress the bag until the broad heads just make it to the other side. The compressed bag is about 15" deep so there is just enough room to unscrew the head on the other side and then pull the shaft out. Its working much better...

    SRT how much rope

    Thanks! Just placed a big order for all kinds of fun stuff at doublestep.com including 40ft of rope (11 for a tether, 11 for a linesman, 7 for an adjustable bridge and about 40 for SRT/rappel which may stay attached to the 11 tether.)

    SRT how much rope

    Looking to buy rope and try out SRT, but trying to figure out how much rope is really needed. If you're climbing a max of say 30ft you would need 70ish feet of rope right? When setting the rope in the tree - 30ft up + 30 ft down plus some for knots. But once the anchor is set you really only...
